PETERBOROUGH – Superintendent Kimberly Rizzo Saunders and the ConVal School Board are pleased to announce that the District’s five-year Strategic Plan has been finalized.
The plan was approved by the School Board on Tuesday, Dec. 6. The Strategic Plan will act as a roadmap for the District to follow through 2028, highlighting specific projects and goals for long-term sustainable growth.
The plan includes District priorities, how the District will measure success, core and supporting metrics, a fully-linked glossary and more. To view the finalized strategic plan click here.
“The community played an important role in developing this comprehensive plan, which will guide us as we navigate the next five years. We truly believe it reflects the core goals of our community, and will help us to better serve our students and staff in the long run,” School Board Chair Janine Lesser said. “I want to thank all the community members, faculty and staff, who played an instrumental role in bringing this plan to fruition.”
The strategic planning process began last fall following the creation of a Strategic Plan Steering Committee and subcommittees consisting of staff, parents and community members. As part of the strategic planning work, community members were invited to partake in a survey on their vision for the future of the district. Following the completion of the survey, ConVal contracted Think Strategy to conduct focus groups to provide deeper insight into community members’ feedback.
Six subcommittees – Curriculum and Instruction, Finance and Capital Planning, Co-Curricular and Athletics, Personnel, Wellness, and Technology – reviewed survey results and focus group feedback on their areas of concern and developed draft goals based on that feedback. The Strategic Plan Steering Committee subsequently worked to develop priority areas for the District and goals for the administration.
The ConVal School District thanks everyone who played a part in the development of the Strategic Plan.
