Why Strategic Planning?
Over the next several months, the Orange County community will develop a strategic plan to guide the work of the school district. Strategic planning allows us to:
-
Engage our community in meaningful ways.
-
Build partnerships and public confidence.
-
Create and communicate a shared vision internally and externally.
-
Demonstrate the courage to abandon status quo thinking.
-
Decide how to spend new money and/or how to make cuts without sacrificing quality.
-
Determine which programs/initiatives are right for your students and/or which ones to abandon.
Our challenge is rethinking how we do things and identifying the systems that need to be put into place in order for us to move our system forward. A completed strategic plan makes our priorities clear, ensures full transparency, and uses measurable outcomes to hold us accountable for maintaining focus on what will benefit our students.

Strategic Action Teams
During March and April, Action Teams will be working on the next phase of the Strategic Planning Process.
