Core Strategies

The following four core strategies organize our continuous improvement work at the district and at the school level. They represent the organizational capabilities we must develop over time to make our mission and vision come to life. Our Core Strategies are further defined and supported by our Strategic Objectives. We will focus on key performance objectives each year within these strategic objectives in order to meet our mission, vision, and belief statements for student learning.

  • Student Engagement and Learning
  • Human Resources
  • Service and Partnerships
  • Finance and Operations

Strategic Objectives

Student Engagement and Learning

  • Provide every student with a well-rounded education that meets their learning needs in an appropriate, healthy, and safe environment
  • Utilize evidence-based interventions and support services to ensure every student graduates from high school prepared for their college and career plan
  • Make progress on closing the achievement gap for all subgroups in English language arts and mathematics so all students meet challenging academic standards

Human Resources

  • Provide professional growth and improvement opportunities for all teachers, principals, paraprofessionals, and other school leaders to further a high-quality education for all students.

Service and Partnerships

  • Strengthen district service, stakeholder satisfaction, and partnerships by embedding a continuous improvement system (including monitoring of progress and critical results) throughout the district.

Finance and Operations

  • Address ongoing financial challenges by re-examining system processes for efficiencies that can drive resources into our core purpose of student learning.
