Minutemen March to 2025:

Over the past several months, the Lexington #7 Board of Education worked with our community, our staff, and our students to listen, to question, and to formulate a road map for the future of our district.  We hope that this document will provide the opportunity for continued organizational growth for our district and guidance for short-term and long-term decision making.  We want to thank everyone in Minutemen Nation that assisted in this process by contributing your thoughts, concerns, and ideas to this plan.   Minutemen March to 2025.pdf
