DISCUSSION Watch
Board Values Follow-up
Accountability and excellence were the two shared values the board identified during their last workshop. Dr. Gordon explained the purpose of the workshop is to discuss and affirm our collective values as a board and to identify the descriptors of an ideal school. Once determined, the values and characteristics will be woven into a SWOT survey which will be created by staff and is a foundational component of the strategic planning process.
After discussion, the Board agreed that their shared values were
Excellence for all students
Continuous Improvement
Equity/ Inclusion/Diversity
Individualization
Informed Decision Making
Root Cause
The Board also identified the following descriptors of an ideal school
