12.A.1. Strategic Planning Community Survey (Facilitated by AASB)
Description:
Southeast Island School District is working on developing a new strategic plan. Developing a Strategic Plan is vital for moving the District forward -- the plan becomes the map for the board and staff to follow. It is vitally important that the plan is developed by a diverse representation of our community. This survey is being administered by the Association of Alaska School Board's Board Development team on behalf of our District and takes about 10 minutes to complete. Your responses to this survey will remain anonymous and individual responses will be combined when presented to the Board of Education and the team that is being pulled together to work on the Strategic Plan. Please note: any responses that contain names of individuals and / or foul language will be deleted. Thank you for taking the time to provide your input on our strategic plan. This survey will remain open through September 27. Here is the direct link to the survey: https://forms.gle/UAm 8RS pbxhV 86 |
