Superintendent says 'all means all' after district meets scorecard goals; highlights curriculum, retention and career pathways
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Kim Imidzik told the Greendale electorate the district met its scorecard goals, described curriculum investments including CKLA and LETRS training, reported 95% staff retention and increased community engagement, and highlighted career-pathway enrollment among seniors.
Greendale, Wis. — Dr. Kim Imidzik, superintendent of Greendale Schools, told electors at the district’s Oct. 14 annual meeting that the district met all board-established scorecard goals and outlined priorities for instruction, student well-being and staff retention.
Dr. Imidzik framed the district’s approach around a mission adopted in 2021 and six strategic priorities. “All means all,” she said repeatedly to emphasize inclusion as the district refines curriculum, assessment and intervention strategies. She said the district adopted CKLA for pre-K–5 and a secondary curriculum for grades 6–12 and invested in extensive LETRS teacher training during the summer, funded in part through federal and local resources.
The superintendent reported concrete outcomes: administrators set eight scorecard goals tied to district priorities and “we achieved 100 of those goals over the course of the year,” she said. She also reported a strong staff-retention rate (95% retained year-to-year) and said nearly 20% of seniors are participating in off-campus dual-enrollment career pathways with local technical colleges.
Why it matters: The report ties curriculum and professional development investments to district accountability measures the board uses to measure progress. Imidzik highlighted both academic targets (reading proficiency efforts under Act 20 and grade-level standards enforcement) and social-emotional programming (Character Strong lessons and community engagement events that drew larger participation this year).
Next steps: The superintendent said annual scorecards will guide school- and department-level goals, and the board will continue monitoring progress through triannual reports from administrators. Imidzik closed by thanking staff and presenting the district’s priorities as the basis for next year’s budget and program decisions.
