STRATEGIC
PLANNING
The
Seattle School Board adopted Seattle Public School's
Strategic Plan - Excellence for All on June 4, 2008. The
Strategic Plan embarks on a process to:
- Support high-quality
teaching and learning: increase the consistency of curriculum,
instruction and assessment across the district.
- Attract and support
talent: increase professional development opportunities to meet
existing staff’s needs and simplify the recruiting process to
identify and attract new staff.
- Drive efficiency and
effectiveness: improve central office functions – such as
information management and human resources – to use public
resources more efficiently and better support our students,
teachers, principals and schools.
- Introduce effective
district-wide performance management: develop clear measures of
success and accountability focused on supporting student
achievement.
- Strengthen
relationships with stakeholders and partners: develop better
processes to gather and share feedback on our performance and
identify the best ways to reach out to the broader
community.
