Trumann School District Strategic Plan: A 5-Year Roadmap to #MoveTrumannForward

Thanks to the input and collaboration of our students, staff, families, school board members, and community partners, Trumann School District is proud to share the progress of our 5-Year Strategic Plan—our Roadmap to #MoveTrumannForward.

This plan reflects the shared priorities of our community and provides a clear direction to improve learning, strengthen school culture, and enhance opportunities for every Wildcat. With a focus on academic growth, student success, and school safety, the plan outlines key initiatives that will guide our work through 2029.

Key Focus Areas:

Our Strategic Plan is built around three major focus areas:

  • Academics & Talent – High-quality instruction, professional development, and student learning goals in literacy, math, and science.

  • Culture & Student Support – Positive school culture, family engagement, student wellness, and a strong sense of belonging for all.

  • Operations & Safety – Safe, effective school environments and systems that support student success.

Campus Reconfiguration Highlights (Starting 2024–25)

As part of our strategic realignment to better meet students’ developmental and academic needs, campuses will be restructured as follows:

Trumann Elementary School (Grades K–3)

🟡 Focus: Early Literacy
Our goal is for all students to read on grade level by the end of 3rd grade.
Supports include:

  • Weekly reading interventions for all students

  • Monthly reading challenges and guest readers

  • Daily school-wide literacy celebrations and incentives

Trumann Middle School (Grades 4–7)

Students will engage in daily instruction in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies—plus daily physical activity.

Eighth graders will now be full-time at THS, opening access to high school-level electives, CTE, and fine arts.
Expanded opportunities include:

  • Concurrent credit and advanced coursework (e.g. Algebra I, AP)

  • Dedicated career coaching and postsecondary planning
