Superintendent Matt Vance wants Shelbyville Central Schools to stand out. Like most superintendents across the country, he’s driving his Indiana district forward despite funding constraints caused by declining enrollment.
To meet today’s challenges, Vance and his team have focused new initiatives on three areas: mental health, staff support and curriculum alignment.
“Funding is a huge concern, so we look at what we can do for our students. What can we do for our staff?” Vance tells District Administration. “At the same time, we’re living within our financial means and doing the absolute best we can. It is a bit of a balancing act.”
