Summary

District leaders presented a revised strategic plan extending the literacy and math proficiency improvement goal to five years, adding measurement methods (MAPs, Istation) and integrating CTE pathways (oil & gas, welding) tied to regional curricula.

Chair/presenter (S4) briefed the board on the districts strategic plan updates. The board revised Goal 1 from a target of 20% improvement over three years to a 20% proficiency increase over five academic years, citing consultant guidance that three years was overly aggressive. S4 said the district will implement a structured, inclusive instructional program with short‑cycle assessments and targeted supports to measure growth.

S4 noted the plan integrates existing assessments (Istation at elementary, MAPs at middle/high) and described how the district will use local short‑cycle data to inform instruction. The district also inserted CTE pathway curricula (energy/oil & gas and welding) and plans to align with regional programs used by neighboring districts.

S4 said community‑involvement metrics will rely on event sign‑in sheets and surveys; the board discussed clearer public reporting and distribution of presentation materials in advance of meetings. Staff committed to emailing the PowerPoint and updated timeline after the meeting so board members and the public can review.
