President Michal began the discussion by noting that this year, the Board set short-term goals for the district as a new team was brought in and an interim superintendent. Now, with a new team and a new Superintendent, she said they are looking into developing a Strategic Plan to set long-term goals that will guide the district's direction and, hopefully, provide clear, measurable targets. She said the Board also had the opportunity during their February Board Retreat to review the WSSDA Strategic Planning Guide and to look at fellow districts' guides to see how they have formulated their plans, and she would like the Board to have a conversation around that. President Michal also asked the Board to provide the Superintendent with direction on the timing and scope of the plan, as well as on community engagement for the plan. The Board discussed some of the initial drafts they had on paper and discussed examples they've researched, such as timelines on setting up community engagement and whether to use a simplified or more detailed approach. All Board members agreed to ensure community engagement and to solicit feedback. They went on to further discuss timelines of when to start and will hold another discussion in the future when more information is brought back from the Superintendent for them to review.
