MARYSVILLE—The Marysville School District recognizes the importance of community input and engagement in this critical decision-making process. The meetings will provide an opportunity for parents, students, teachers, staff, and community members to learn more about the factors influencing the school closures, ask questions, and share their concerns.
The meetings will take place on the following dates:
- Meeting 1: October 22, 6:00 – 7:00 pm, Marysville Tulalip Campus Gym
- Meeting 2: October 23, 6:00 – 7:00 pm, Marysville Pilchuck High School Commons
- Meeting 3: October 28, 6:00 – 7:00 pm, Marysville Middle School Gym
The same information will be shared at each meeting. Interested parties can choose the date that best works for their schedule. Additional meetings may be added as needed.
The district has been closely monitoring enrollment and studying school capacity, condition, size and location and is now prepared to hold broader conversations with our school district community. It is important to know that although some schools were discussed for potential closure, no decisions have been made.
“We understand that the potential closure of a school can significantly impact our community,” said Dr. Dave Burgess, Interim Superintendent. “We are committed to a transparent and open process that allows everyone to participate and provide input.”
The district encourages all community members to attend one or more of the meetings and share their thoughts on this important issue.

I want to know who makes the big decisions. I know it is not the school board. Someone chose a left company to screen people applying for the job of superintendent. The board only were given 3 people to choose from. Who is that person or people? The residents should be able to vote on the person making the decisions. It should NOT be someone who hides in the background. How much money are they making?
Why are we paying so much for a superintendent? I have been living in 6 years and have seen 3 superintendents and the education is still going down. Also, why are we continuing to pay them when they are gone?
We need teachers who KNOW how to teach. They are NOT taught how to teach in college. They have to entertain the instructors and jump through hoops. The teachers’ unions are to blame. the district should abolish the unions from being in the district.
Why are we paying teachers, when many classes are using computer programs to teach the kids?
Every employee of the district, including those who hide in the back and make the decisions, should have to be evaluated on how well they do their job.
Yes!! This all THIS!! this district failed so many students financially & teachers should have a sliding scale pay based on student PROGRESS!! Definitely need students who disrupt handled immediately & separately. Teacher unions need to be banned in the city. They’re so many overpaid office & upper management. Fiscal.wa.job school employee salary people.

Paid according to student progress??????????? Teachers are not miracle workers. These kids have been taught NOTHING at home. They are so neglected at home and then given every material thing they want so the parents don’t have to spend time with them. They think they are the only one kid in the class who matters, and have no respect for the teacher or their parents. And then the parents think the teacher should magically turn their kids into model citizens in six hours a day? Everything that goes wrong in the classroom is the teachers fault, not the fault of their precious little neglected children. Try teaching for a day and see if you still think this way.
Good point, MSD25 has had a lot of analysis to make changes, but they don’t time and again. Not sure what “left company to screen” means. Marysville and Tulalip Tribes needs a meeting of the minds.
There is a lot of prejudice here. I’ve subbed in this district for 16 years with a few long term gigs. Discrimination in hiring and incompetent staff directors makes it hard to understand why this district is still standing.
