In October 2018, we launched our five-year Strategic Plan. The plan outlines our new vision, mission, and values, which were co-designed by our Board, staff, community. It also introduced our six key priorities: 1) High-Quality Instruction; 2) Student Well-Being; 3) Exceptional Staff; 4) Climate and Culture; 5) Family and Community; 6) Organizational Alignment. We used these priorities as a guide during our first year of implementation to build focus and common understanding around the strategies and programs we are implementing to ensure our students are affirmed for who they are, inspired by their experiences, and have access to the individualized supports and services that will empower them to thrive. During that time, we also built clarity on what we plan to achieve by 2023, the final year of our plan. In that year, our learning community will:

• Know students’ individual stories, strengths and aspirations
• Know how students’ individual experiences reflect the health of our system on the whole
• Deliver high quality instruction that is standards-based and data-driven
• Engage in courageous conversations using tools and protocols to address barriers and challenges that our students face
• Build a positive culture and climate by living our values, recognizing the individual strengths of students and staff, and affirming and honoring the unique identities of our students, staff, and families
• Feel engaged, valued, and supported with sufficient resources
• Have a refined system for recruiting, supporting, and retaining exceptional staff
• Know how to engage with community partners in a way that makes them feel valued and aligns their services to school and student needs
• Embody a culture of shared leadership and collective accountability
• Align resource allocation with identified needs, priorities, and goals to improve the impact of our work

We know that achieving these goals will require deliberate and focused effort. We will also undertake this work in a budgetary climate where funding increases will be limited, requiring us to limit our efforts to the most impactful programs. This will require us to make difficult choices, including discontinuing previous work that although beneficial and valued, did not offer the same impact or continue to move us toward our vision for the future of our district. With that in mind, in May 2019, we worked with our Board to co-design five results-oriented goals to focus our work going forward. These goals do not supplant the priorities originally identified in the Strategic Plan, but rather use them as a guide for identifying the targeted results we would like to achieve.
