Strategic Plan: Moving Fast

A reader requested a thread on the feedback to the draft Strategic Plan that was discussed at a Board Work Session this week. I see that the Steering Committee is having another meeting on Monday, Feb. 4th; I'll have to see if I can attend.

I did not attend this Work Session; here is the agenda/attached documentation.


I am a bit dismayed to see on page 3 the consultant group's Planning Framework.  Have they not examined past work by the district?  Because these measures/benchmarks are nothing new to the district's work. 

Page 4 shows the list of meetings with stakeholders.  They had one meeting specifically for assistant principals but they could only have a single meetings in the north end?  Interesting.  (There is one last meeting tomorrow with students from the Student Advisory Board.)

As for the online survey, the majority of respondents were parents (55%) or "guardian+community member" (12%) with staff (11%).  The majority of respondents indicated they were white (53%) with "I prefer not to answer" the next highest total at 15%.

There's a section "Interim Summary of Themes."  Here's some thoughts from it (partial):

• Opportunity exists to further simplify language and add clear definitions for key terminology to ensure that all stakeholders can fully access and understand the Strategic Plan.  

Amen to that one.

• There is frustration caused by a perceived lack of representation of special education students and other marginalized groups...that may also be far from educational justice.  

I don't think "perceived" is necessarily the right word when, in fact, Sped students are not mentioned at all. 

• Potential to include more rationale explaining why SPS would prioritize students of color with an intentional focus on African American males.  This could include more clearly explaining how the focus on racial equity will benefit (and not "cost") every SPS student so that they receive a high-quality, world class education.

 I'll have to make a note to tell the Board that this "world class" meme is a tired one.  I see it's in the "Vision" statement as well.

This seems to include the issue that this focus "others" or "stigmatizes" these students by focusing priorities so tightly on them.  That's a good point; maybe put the focus on low-income students of color might make that less so.
