Many of you have inquired as to the results of the first planning session
held Saturday, October 2, 2004, as part of the Board of Trustees'
Long Range Plan (LRP) process. Approximately 50+ participants (parents,
faculty, staff, board members and written input from students) were divided
into five groups and asked to brainstorm ideas that would depict the ideal
SCPS in the year 2010. Each group was asked to come up with at least 40-50
ideas and then to prioritize those ideas into a top ten or 15 list. (All
ideas presented will be included in the appendix of the final LRP report).
The prioritized lists in the report
also include the list of recommendations
from the Institutional Assessment Report given to the Board by Dr. Walker
Buckalew, Master Consultant with Independent School Management, Inc. (ISM).
At the Saturday, November 6, 2004, planning meeting the prioritized lists
with estimated costs (expressed in tuition increase terms) will be discussed
and prioritized by the participants as to cost effectiveness and mission
appropriateness. This list of priorities with costs will next be edited and
assigned timelines by the Steering Committee of the Board (co-chaired by
Cheryl Drwiega and Jim Stevenson) and the administration. Dr. Buckalew will
write the final draft of the plan to be recommended by the Steering
Committee to the Board for adoption at the November Board meeting.
If you have any questions or concerns, or would like to participate in the
Saturday, November 6 planning meeting, please let me know via email or
phone.
