A Strategic Planning Leadership Team was appointed by the Board of School Directors at the February 26, 2007 Board meeting. This team was composed of the various stakeholder groups in order to bring a broad array of perspectives to the planning process.
This team had the task of reviewing and revising, as needed, our belief and vision statements, examining our progress in meeting our 2001-2007 goals, conducting an internal analysis of system strengths and areas for growth, and an external scan of factors influencing education. The team recommended goals for our 2007-2013 plan as they relate to our mission statement, "To prepare students for lifelong success through excellence in education."
Once the overall goals were developed, administrative, faculty, and staff work groups and Citizen Advisory Committees were charged with drafting action plans during May through July. The draft strategic plan came to the Board of School Directors for public review in August, with action in September to meet the required submission date of September 30, 2007.
