Hello! My name is Becky Berg and I am the new Superintendent of the proud Marysville School District. I follow in the footsteps of my predecessor, Dr. Larry Nyland, who served this district selflessly for the past nine years. I come to you most recently from the Deer Park School District in Deer Park, Wash., just north of Spokane. My husband and I are so excited to live here and to “knit in” to the fabric of the Marysville/Tulalip community.

In order to tell if something is really working, you have to start with a clear idea of what it is actually supposed to be doing. This is pretty easy when it comes to things like kitchen appliances or guitar lessons. For example, does the coffee maker dependably brew a good cup of coffee — yes or no? Or am I actually making progress in my ability to play the guitar (just ask my wife!)? All in all, a clearly defined purpose makes assessment a no-brainer.
