District 88 Strategic Plan update

Jeff Cohn with Brave Dialogue provides an update to the District 88 Board of Education regarding the district's Strategic Plan during the Jan. 14 Board meeting. Cohn gave a recap of the Strategic Plan process and led the Board members in an interactive activity to gather their input on the process and suggested updates to the plan.

As previously shared, District 88 is in the process of updating its Strategic Plan to retool and enhance the district’s existing 2010 plan and to ensure the focus remains on accomplishing the district’s mission of working for the continuous improvement of student achievement. From September to November, administrators and facilitator Jeff Cohn with Brave Dialogue met with more than 700 stakeholders – including staff members, parents and guardians, community members and students – to gather their feedback and thoughts with this process.

During the Jan. 14 District 88 Board of Education meeting, Cohn recapped the time line, goals and initiatives of the Strategic Plan process. The Board also participated in an interactive activity to provide their input on the process and suggested updates to the plan. The District 88 administration will incorporate the recommendations from the Board, set measures for each goal within the updated Strategic Plan and submit it for Board approval in February.
