We need to continue to build momentum and ask committee chairs to review survey results and use them to inform goals for 2020-2021. We will ask the committees to draft goals for FY21 over two months and share with board in September.While the high school is providing strategic direction right now, we must assess our progress in the HPS partnership and determine best path forward.
