Inter-District Collaboration

Declining enrollments and dwindling resources require districts to find ways to improve educational quality and maximize resources through sharing and building on each other’s strengths.

We help you find solutions that improve outcomes for students and are fiscally responsible.

WE HELP YOU ANALYZE PROGRAM AND FINANCIAL DATA AND FACILITATE COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS TO FIND CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS TO FIT YOUR NEEDS

Educational Quality Reviews provide analyses of the following within and among district partners:

  • Alignment between the written, taught, and tested curriculum

  • Coherence between many programs and initiatives

  • Identifying areas of individual strengths between partner districts that, when leveraged, can help improve programs and outcomes for all students.

Financial Reviews provide with analyses of the following within and among district partners:

  • Cost-benefit analyses of sharing services and programs

  • Cost-benefit analyses of joint bidding and contracting

  • Cost-benefit analyses of full regionalization with district partners

Engagement of All Stakeholders in the Process of Creating Collaborative Solutions to Benefit Students, including school and district educators, parents, and community members through a menu of options:

  • Surveys

  • Focus Group Interviews

  • Facilitated Town Hall Meetings

TMS holds no opinion as to whether or not districts should regionalize or come to some other collaborative agreement for shared services. We present the analyses so all stakeholders can make informed decision about how to provide the highest quality education to all students in a way that is fiscally responsible.
