Enhanced Communication/Community Engagement

We will continue to maximize the use of district resources, such as the TV stations, to share the excellence taking place throughout the district.
- Thought Exchange will be used as a methodology to allow for insight and feedback to be provided by all district stakeholders.
- The District Administration will work collaboratively with parent groups and community organizations to enhance the overall educational experience within the district. Opportunities to engage with Administration will be purposefully planned to provide opportunities for parents/community members input.
Effective Transitions
- Appropriate resources will be used to ensure an effective transition of leadership both at the administrative and Board level.
- Focus items from the 2022-23 school year will be revisited with current district leadership to ensure appropriate follow-up action is taken. This includes topics discussed within the 2022-23 advisory committee as well as demographic data.
