2025-2026 Superintendent’s Message
Dear NSSEO Family,
We are thrilled to announce that our NSSEO Five Year Strategic Plan is complete. Thank you to all who participated in our focus groups, surveys, and writing sessions that resulted in the plan that you see front and center on our website. We know that our plan is ambitious and rigorous, but with all of the hearts and minds working toward new possibilities, we will make this plan our new reality!
In our plan, we are focusing on broadening our governance structure to include more substantive input from our member districts and to be more responsive to their needs as the educational landscape evolves. Additionally, we will continue to work on our programs and professional development to ensure that we are thinking creatively and staying on the cutting edge of best practices in education. We will continue to explore new ways to recruit and retain our talent staff who bring out the best in our students, and we will work on ways to increase transparency in our expenditure of the community resources that have been entrusted to us.
Through our communications, you will see that our theme for this school year is, “Shine From Within!”. We are emphasizing that as staff and community members, our attitude is a key element in our students’ willingness to try the new things that help them achieve their goals. When we shine, our students shine! We know that our students rely on us to be a positive force in their lives and that they look forward to seeing us at school every day. On the tough days, we are reminding each other to still shine bright and bring our best with us to school. This is what makes us an outstanding organization-we put students' needs above all else. There is no place quite like NSSEO!
Looking forward to a wonderful 25-26 school year!
Sincerely,
Dr. Meg Schnoor
Superintendent
NSSEO
