Board of Education Goals and Objectives
Board of Education looking forward to a better year
- Always make decisions based on what is best for students
- Transparency- honest and open with all stakeholders.
- Communication Protocol- effective communication between school administration, Central Office administration, the board and the parents.
In addition to identifying how the board will improve this year, they also discussed pending issues. These are what they felt were their top three:
- Declining Enrollment and Staffing
- Update Policies
- Facility (Window project)
We have a very supportive board, and I am confident that their goals for this year will go a very long way. Below is a video the board watched, please view when you have a chance- it is a great message for all.
