Something very significant happened at Tuesday’s meeting of the Board of
Education. They publicly announced and approved their mission, vision, and
beliefs. This signals a tremendous leap forward for our District. The
Board has been working on these for nearly six weeks. Why does it take so
long? Well, for the Board every word has meaning. They wanted to be sure
that every member understood what the statements meant, and more
importantly, that everyone could stand by them. The finished product is
very nice, but the process was invaluable! For those of you who have ever
tried to write something by committee, you’ll appreciate how intense this
process is. But once you are finished, you’ve really got something of value.
Everyone is on the same page. I can now say with confidence, and so can
you, what our Board wants to accomplish, what they value, and what they
believe in. These will be the foundation for every decision we make as we
go forward. Congratulations to the Board for beginning their work by
defining who they are and what they believe in. We’re off and running!
