Summary

Dr. Ruth presented the district's school renewal plans aligned to Vision 2030; the board approved each school's plan and was told schools must revisit goals annually with documented progress and may realign strategies if benchmarks are not met.

Dr. Ruth presented a condensed version of each school's renewal plan aligned to the district's Vision 2030 goals and outlined the required measurable, SMART goals schools must set in student achievement, teacher and administrative quality, and school climate. She told the board that schools designated CSI/ATSI or otherwise underperforming must include targeted strategies for subgroups and that each goal must include action steps, assigned responsibilities, timelines and funding sources.

Board members asked how the district will handle schools that do not meet their goals. Dr. Ruth said the state requires high ELA and math targets and schools must revisit and document progress annually; they may realign goals or strategies but must show the monitoring and documentation in their plan each summer. The board approved the school renewal plans unanimously and requested annual progress reports.

Dr. Ruth emphasized that principals lead plan preparation and may delegate work to instructional specialists and staff. The condensed packet presented to the board lists main goals for each school; full school plans range in length and include detailed strategies and monitoring templates.
