The Kansas City, Mo., School District is seeking more than 500 community members to lead the way in the next phase of its historic strategic planning effort.
The district is seeking individuals to participate on the Strategic Planning Action Teams. Community members will be responsible for developing specific strategies for improving areas such as curriculum, student safety, assessment and achievement, customer service, family participation, and early childhood education.
Community members interested in participation may visit www.kcmsd.net and download an interest form. Once completed, the forms may be e-mailed to strategicplanning@kcmsd.net, faxed to (816) 418-7550 or mailed to the district offices, 1211 McGee St., Kansas City, MO 64106 Attn: Public Relations.
The Action Teams will provide tactical guidance to ideas and goals formulated by a community-led, 60-person Core Team in December 2009. Once complete, Superintendent John Covington will ask the School Board to adopt the finalized plan as official policy.
