Board outlines communications, climate and evaluation goals and adopts rotating meeting calendar
Summary
Board members prioritized a district communications audit, a district-wide climate policy tied to state documentation requirements, and completion of an evaluation system as precursors to a strategic operating plan; the board also adopted a calendar to rotate business meetings among district schools.
Board members discussed draft 2025–26 board and district goals and agreed on three priorities to feed a future strategic operating plan: a district communications audit and plan, a district-wide climate policy and complaint documentation (to comply with state requirements), and finalizing the districtwide teacher/administrator evaluation system that began last year.
The board emphasized that administrators need time to gather records and evidence for evaluations and that staff will return with more detailed proposals. The superintendent said building-level conversations and administrator roundtables revealed communications as a recurring concern from staff and parents.
Separately, the board adopted a restructured meeting format: workshops early in the month and business/voting meetings at the end of the month, with business meetings rotating among district schools so board members can see building programs and recognize students in local settings. The calendar for 2025–26 was moved, seconded and approved at the meeting.
