Strategic Plan - Academic Excellence Workgroup

​​​​​​​Committee Purpose/Charge

   

To provide recommendations for the development of an updated strategic plan around academic and well-being outcomes for students. This workgroup will work to identify skills, knowledge, dispositions, and experiences that each student should acquire during their time in our district.

The superintendent will consider the recommendations as he develops an updated strategic plan.
