The New Strategic Plan Is an Opportunity for Shared Success

As the district begins rolling out its new 2018-21 Strategic Plan, it’s important for everyone in CHCCS - staff, students, families and community members - to realize we all have an integral part in it.  When we began the planning process, I wanted to make sure we have a role for everyone, as challenging everyone to be a part of the Strategic Plan will ensure its success.  I wanted it to be more than big ideas on paper, I want our Strategic Plan to be an opportunity.

Our focus is simple:  empower, inspire and engage.  We built everything around these words.   Everyone in CHCCS can do each of these things every day.  When we work towards empowering, inspiring and engaging, there should be no limits and no obstacles.

The four areas of our plan - Student Success, Employee Experience, Family and Community Engagement, and Organizational Effectiveness - encompass the areas CHCCS navigates every day, all year long.  Each of these affect every school district’s main objective - the education of students.

Please watch for more information as we get closer to the beginning of the 2018-19 school year.  We will share more than just the main goals of this Strategic Plan - we’ll also share our subgoals and objectives.  As you learn more about the plan, you’ll begin to see this is a district-wide vision.  It’s more than just a single-focus.  It’s more than test scores.  It’s more than one segment of our community.  It is multi-layered, looking at every piece that goes into a student’s day.

It needs more than just the buy-in of district administrators and some educators.  The Strategic Plan needs you - all of CHCCS - to make it effective.  I’m counting on each of you to figure out what you can do to ensure each student and adult is empowered, inspired and engaged.
