Recently, our Board of Education approved our 2023-2028 Strategic Goals!
Ensure academic engagement and growth for all students
Support a learning environment that is safe, inclusive, and engaging for all students
Grow and maintain a work environment that recruits and retains high-quality staff
Enhance communication and community relations
Provide a safe and effective learning environment with fiscal responsibility
These goals were developed by stakeholder feedback including focus groups and surveys. Next, our board and administration will begin working from these goals to then develop specific strategies over the next couple of years.
