About Marcus Legrand

My current opportunity allows me to help create successful educational pathways for students while working with a uniquely skilled team. After a successful career in business working with customer-centered organizations was only a small part of my skill set and my new focus needed to be directed at developing, organizing, and implementing educational solutions for secondary and collegiate programs. After 12 years of working in education, I\'ve become a superb change agent. I assign students to recognize their academic abilities and improve their real-world readiness, all while building the attitudes necessary to exceed their goals year after year.
