OUR STORY

#ILJAC18

Just five years ago . . .

• We were hiring our 5th superintendent in 3 years
• We had a divided BOE
• We had a referendum defeated and a bond increase

petitioned out

• We had 3 of 4 principals in new positions
• 3 new BOE members after contested elections
• We had over a 1 million dollar annual deficit
• We had eliminated course offerings
• We had eliminated junior high athletics

TOTAL DYSFUNCTION

Mission

Our mission is to educate students to be self-directed learners, collaborative workers, complex thinkers, quality producers, and community contributors.

WHY WE WERE ABLE TO CHANGE

#1

Commitment Conflict Resolution Team Balance and Informal Roles

Someone has to care deeply Everyone needs to forgive fast Personal beefs MUST lose out to the importance of the work

Norms that Guide our Behavior

• Preparedness is not an option
• Communication is key – both ways
• The BOE employs one employee
• The BOE drives behavior by establishing a mission, vision, and

goals and holds its employee responsible for charging toward those ends.

• We listen to our community, but understand our role as

elected officials is not to solve individual problems but to create policies and systems that help alleviate issues

• Supe also keeps open door and PHONE policy to ‘insulate’ us from

issues that are truly not BOE work

• We will orient and train all new BOE members
