MSAD #51 Strategic Priorities

WELLNESS: FOUNDATION FOR TEACHING & LEARNING

Promote wellness initiatives that advance and sustain healthy, balanced, and well-rounded students and staff.

EVERY STUDENT COLLEGE & CAREER READY

Working together as a district, we can find the right answers to these key questions:  What should students learn? How do we know they’re learning it? What do we do when they’re not learning it?  What do we do when they already know it? Focusing on the vital nature of literacy, while continuing to promote STEM, will ensure college and career readiness.

SKILLS FOR THE 21ST CENTURY.  SKILLS FOR LIFE.

Students are more likely to engage when learning is meaningful and relevant.  Fostering creativity, innovation, and personalization enhances the learning process.  Extend access to pathways for all high school students through connections to meaningful career-related field experiences.

EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION, THE CRITICAL BUILDING BLOCK

Review the district's long-term elementary education program and structure, including options for three and four year olds, optimal grade spans, and facilities that address projected enrollment increases over the next decade.
