Summary

District leaders told the board they will concentrate this year on climate and culture, early literacy and chronic absenteeism; leadership-team meetings will convert those focus areas into measurable goals and action steps.

A district presenter outlined three priority areas for the coming year: climate and culture, early literacy, and chronic absenteeism. "...we're gonna have three focus areas this year, our climate culture, early literacy, and chronic absenteeism," the presenter said, and described the leadership-team process to set goals and action steps.

The presenter said the leadership team includes classified and certified staff and administration who will coordinate across the district to implement the goals. Board members were told these priorities will inform training and professional development, including literacy coaching and PBIS (positive behavior interventions and supports). The presenter noted plans to share outcomes districtwide so staff and families understand the work and progress.
