Marci Trahan

Marci Trahan brings 36 years of educational experience and a commitment to “help anyone in education in any way they need.” Having served as a teacher, assistant principal, principal, director, assistant superintendent, and superintendent (and as a parent), Marci has a deep understanding of how every role within a school and district functions. This unique perspective allows her to build trust, foster collaboration, and help districts work more efficiently to make a meaningful impact.

Passionate about HR and guided by the belief that employees are a district’s greatest resource, Marci partners with clients to strengthen HR practices and address immediate and long-term needs. She frequently supports her clients by conducting organizational audits as well as providing specific guidance in challenging personnel matters, enrollment trends and staffing allocations, recruitment and retention strategies, employee relations and contract management, compliance with state and federal regulations, and the review and development of job descriptions, communications, and forms and letters. Marci’s goal is to help clients resolve pressing issues, strengthen HR systems, and remove barriers to student and staff success—all while ensuring fiscal solvency.

Beyond HR, Marci’s experience extends to the broader challenges that districts face. She advises on issues that intersect between school site and district office operations, including budget management, student support and wellness, emergency preparedness protocols, and education partner and board relations. Her comprehensive, equity-focused approach helps districts align their operations to create more inclusive and effective learning environments.
