What is a Strategic Plan? • An approach to growth or change o “The set of actions an organization chooses to pursue in order to achieve its objectives. These deliberate actions are puzzle pieces that fit together to create a clear picture of how the people, activities and resources of an organization can work effectively to accomplish a collective purpose.” • A set of self-created guidelines, a roadmap, a reasoned starting point and orders of magnitude from which to embark on growth and change • A living document that will be revisited and revised on a regular basis • It is NOT a tactical plan: It is NOT a static document: It is NOT everything everyone wants nor everything the system does It is a set of of carefully considered pathways that bring focus to our Instructional Core (Students-Educators-Curriculum) and guide decisions that will help us achieve our mission and vision. 7

Curriculum & Instruction Objective 1: Aligned, 21 st Century Curriculum By 2021, CSD will develop a K-12 curriculum that fosters creativity, provides opportunity for personalization, and develops global, 21st century skills that lead to college and career readiness. It is horizontally, vertically, and standards aligned, and is a living document that incorporates ongoing stakeholder input and is accessible through multiple platforms.
Curriculum & Instruction Objective 2: Assessment By 2021, CSD will create common (by grade-level or course) assessments that are standards based and include authentic real-world modalities. CSD will minimize the impact of standardized assessments on instructional time. Systems for reporting multiple measures of student growth and achievement will be adopted district wide.
Curriculum & Instruction Objective 3: Instructional Strategies By 2021, all CSD educators will utilize a variety of instructional strategies to engage their students, maximizing active learning and personalization of curriculum.
