IMPLEMENTATION PLAN The Barksdale Group is fully prepared to cater to the needs of your schools and students. Our primary goal is to facilitate a smooth and successful transition. To ensure this, we will assemble a dedicated team exclusively for your district, eliminating the need for district staff to assist in the transition process. Our knowledgeable representatives will be available for on-site meetings during the initial implementation phase, engaging with key personnel in each building. Each meeting is designed to be concise, typically lasting around 45 minutes. Our commitment is to make the transition seamless and hassle-free for your district.
