Strategic Planning UpdateProvidence School Board Presentation January 23, 2012
Why are we creating a strategic plan now? • It will help PPSD staff to focus our efforts and allocate limited resources appropriately to help achieve our goals • PPSD has a solid base that has emerged from multiple meetings to build on existing work to make an actionable, focused plan that will drive real results for the stakeholders of PPSD • This process will unite leaders to move together; not to recreate existing work, but rather to refine, understand, and build on it so it becomes real. • There is a high sense of urgency. • This work should make peoples’ jobs more focused and targeted,- easier, not harder!

Our starting point reflects a solid base to work from Board Policies • Beliefs and Commitments (Incl. Core values, Vision, Mission) • Revised January 2008 • School District Goals & Objectives • Approved October 2003 • High School Reform Portfolio • Adopted March 2007 • Strategic Direction (incl. Aligned Instruction System) • Approved September 2008 Past Plans • “Realizing the Dream” plan (2006-2009) Recent Work • Strategic Framework Map • EOWG initiative We have a variety of strategic-planning related inputs to consider.
Current Draft Strategy Framework Map Our map is a great start and reflects a lot of hard work and thinking, but we need a deeper plan to help drive execution
PPSD Framework Map:Overview 4 Goals/Results + Key Indicators We want to make these goals and structure drive our execution . 5 Strategies + 24 Sub-Strategies 40+ Activities & Evidence Based Practices
PPSD Strategic Planning: 5 Key Steps in our process 1 Consolidate Documents Create consolidated strategic planning documents with synthesized goals and other content. The team will compile one working document from the several that exist today. 2 Refine a Theory of Action The team will update and refine a theory of action to help guide ongoing strategic planning efforts 3 Create 3-year Action Plan The plan will specify and align goals, key activities and accountability, including definitive timelines and benchmarks, through an inclusive process that embraces the district’s commitment to shared leadership and stakeholder buy-in 4 Gather Feedback Staff will be given opportunities to raise understanding and generate buy-in with key stakeholders throughout the process with definitive timelines for respondents 5 Revise & Finalize Plan The team will revise and create final documentation and next steps for implementation planning.
What is a Theory of Action? A coherent set of strategies that should ensure academic rigor and maximize student learning at all levels by shaping: • Management Goals • Policies • Strategic Planning • Budgets
School District Strategy & Execution Aspirational Vision Theory of Action Activities & Initiatives Goals Measures Prioritization of Time and Money Action Plan Responsibilities Timelines
Questions? Updates will be provided throughout the months. The team will be gathering data and feedback throughout the process as we develop actionable plans and timelines. Thank you.
