Leaders, Educators, and Community will: • Have shared understanding of the Strategic and Annual Plans. • Understand how a focused, aligned approach to a small number of goals, informed by classroom learning, can improve outcomes for all students. • Learn how the district is ensuring the goals and guardrails are reflected in the instructional and operational practices of district, schools and departments.

2 Years In The Making: Strategic Planning Process

We Expect Every Child To Learn And Thrive. This expectation has never changed. What changed is how we pursue it. The North Star is the student. Everything we do answers to this, or it doesn’t belong in the decisions. Our strategic plan is how we keep that promise and prove we mean it.

We Believe Change Happens… IF we focus on a few goals, align every level to them, and learn from the classroom, THEN student outcomes rise, for every child, not only the ones already ahead. →
