Strategic Plan Update Report to the Board of Directors November 13, 2013 Accountability Division Dr. Linda Del Giudice Chief Accountability Officer
In 2009-10 under the direction of the Board of Directors and Superintendent Vargas, a systemic strategic planning process was initiated. A representative steering committee, consisting of students, parents, teachers, administrators, staff members as well as business and community leaders, was formally established and came together to develop a strategic plan for the Kent School District in 2010-11. They met to review over 7,000 comments generated by staff and members of the community as a result of data collection activities conducted across the district. This effort resulted in the school board approving these seven strategic goals: High Student Achievement Effective & Valuable Communication Maximized Resources (Money, Time, People & Facilities) Safe, Sustainable, Healthy, and Respectful School Community Culture of Shared Responsibility Highly Effective Staff Effective Partnerships With Families, Community, And Businesses History of Strategic Plan Development
