Summary
Board members reviewed RFP responses for strategic-planning consultants, selected two finalists for presentations in January, and set a target to complete the strategic-planning process by September 2026 with broad community engagement.
The Moorestown Board of Education discussed progress on strategic-planning procurement and the planned public engagement timeline.
The communications committee and board members reported they reviewed responses to the district's strategic-planning RFP and selected two top firms to give presentations to the board. The board emphasized the need for inclusive outreach "from staff, students, parents" and said the process should produce strategic decisions that guide the district over a multi-year horizon.
The presiding official said the district aims "to have that process completed by September 2026," with consultant presentations and community engagement beginning early in the new year.
Why it matters: A district strategic plan will guide priorities for curriculum, facilities and budgeting over several years. The board's selection of finalists and a defined timeline make the procurement and outreach process visible to the community.
What's next: Committee presentations to the full board are being scheduled in January and the administration will arrange consultant interviews and community input sessions.
