Strategic Planning
In August 2018, Seattle Public Schools began the process to create a new strategic plan. The new strategic plan will set the course for the district for the next three to five years. The plan will guide how district funds are spent and which initiatives are undertaken to ensure SPS prepares every student for college, career, and life. It will include a theory of action and a short list of high-impact priorities and measurable goals focused on improving outcomes for students.

The input she received, combined with feedback from an online ThoughtExchange discussion, will help shape the new plan. Read more about the Superintendent Juneau's Listening and Learning Tour.
