In keeping with this responsibility and our commitment and desire to develop a responsible district and school-based shared decision-making plan, the following plan was developed and regularly reviewed through the collaborative efforts of the Board of Education, Superintendent, administration, teachers, support staff, students, community members, and parents of the Marion Central School District.

In developing and carrying out the plan, the State of New York delegates to the Marion Board of Education the final responsibility and authority to plan, carry out and implement the plan.
