The strategic planning process began in January of 2009 when the 30-person Planning Team, composed of members representing the diverse stakeholder groups in the District, met for the first time. Using a consensus model of decision making, the group was able to reach 100 percent agreement on a list of core shared beliefs, a new mission representing the community’s loftiest aspirations for the District, objectives, strategic parameters that will guide implementation of the plan, and seven unique strategies designed to achieve the objectives and mission.More than 280 volunteers then took over and met on Monday nights between February and May 2010 to design operational action plans for each of the seven strategies identified by the Planning Team. Participation on Action Teams was open to anyone who stepped forward and attracted students, parents,community members, teachers, staff, and administrators to be part of the groups. The Action Teams also used a consensus model of decision making that required everyone in the room agree before an item would become a part of the plan.- Strategy 1: We will ensure all staff are implementing effective instructional strategies, integrating technology and utilizing assessment data to actively engage each student to increase achievement on state standards, 21st century skills, and personal educational plans.
