On Wednesday, June 3, the Strategic Planning Committee met for the fourth and final time as a full committee and finalized the proposed framework of the district's strategic plan.
Throughout the spring, committee members reviewed district data, analyzed feedback from listening sessions, discussed district priorities, and worked collaboratively to develop the key components of a proposed strategic plan.
The committee developed proposed:
• Vision Statement • Mission Statement • Foundations (Core Values) • Pillars (Strategic Priority Areas)
The proposed Pillars are:
• Student and Staff Well-Being • Teaching and Learning • Family and Community Engagement • Resource Stewardship
The committee's work will continue through four writing teams, which will develop supporting descriptions for the Foundations and Pillars before the proposed plan is presented to the School Board.
The proposed strategic plan will be presented at:
• Board Workshop – Tuesday, June 16, 6:00 p.m. • Board Meeting – Thursday, June 18, 6:00 p.m.
Both meetings will be held in the Board Room located at 45389 Airport Way, Concrete.
If approved by the School Board, district administrators and staff will spend the summer developing goals, objectives, action steps, timelines, measures of success, and resource allocations aligned to the approved Pillars. The completed strategic plan is anticipated to be finalized before the beginning of the 2026–2027 school year and will guide district priorities, planning, and decision-making over the coming years.
