The board approved a contract with CCIU for a 'Portrait of a Graduate' project not to exceed $20,000. The superintendent described the initiative as a way to engage community stakeholders — students, families, business leaders and administrators — to define the skills, mindsets and competencies the community wants the district's students to develop.
Explaining the vendor's role, the superintendent said the contractor would lead focus groups, do scheduling and surveys, and produce the written reports and packaging of results, while district administrators would serve as advisors. "They're gonna lead focus groups through our community. They're gonna do all the scheduling, the tracking down, formulation of the questions... do the write up, to do the packaging," the superintendent said.
