Presentation summarizes community input for next strategic plan; steering committee to be formed
Summary
Dr. Shaps presented results from World Cafe9 forums and surveys identifying top community priorities—critical thinking, resilience, communication, digital ethics and equity—and proposed next steps to form a steering committee to draft a strategic plan.
Dr. Shaps presented a synthesis of World Cafe9 forums and survey responses the district collected as the first phase of a strategic-planning process.
Key themes that emerged were critical thinking and discerning consumers of information, student agency and empowerment, resilience and perseverance, effective communication and collaboration, and digital ethics and literacy. Dr. Shaps said these outcomes and competencies will serve as a foundation for drafting the next strategic plan and that the district will seek volunteers for a steering committee to move from information-gathering to concrete initiatives.
Board members discussed committee size and representation, and the presenter emphasized the need to balance broad community input with a workable committee size and clear time commitments. Dr. Shaps said the next steps include sharing findings with faculty, inviting volunteers for the steering committee and using the gathered data to form a practical, student-centered plan.
No formal vote was taken; Dr. Shaps said the district will report back as the committee forms and begins drafting goals.
