On the strategic plan process

I had said I'd ensure there was some information here on the strategic plan...first, an image that you can grab if that is useful to you!

We as a Committee--and goals like the strategic plan are under our purview--are following our usual process for effective work and running this through a subcommittee, in this case Governance. The work that a to-be-appointed public task force will do will run through Governance to the full Committee, in terms of lines of reporting.

The Task Force, once it is appointed, with be tasked with taking the themes of the previous strategic plan and the outcomes of Dr. Monárrez's Listening and Learning work, and synthesizing them. Their job will be deciding what we may need to keep from the prior plan, what we don't, and how that aligns with the goals that were expressed through the more recent work. 

As  reminder, the previous strategic plan's themes were:

• Culture of innovation
• Academic excellence
• Welcoming schools
• Investing in educators
•  Technology and operations

And the recent themes are:

• Acquiring and retain talent
• Modernized and safe facilities
• Student behavior and safety
• Communication and ongoing engagement
• Wellness and mental health
• Equitable resources and educational programs
