2022 SSR Findings

Strength Areas	Growth Areas
It is very clear the admin is committed to professional growth for all staff	the vision still needs to be communicated more clearly, and sold to/supported by the stakeholder…the staff
Teachers are committed	Teachers want to feel more supported and are eager for more strategies to improve their craft They would love more positive feedback, as well as critical, with suggestions for improvement.
Staff does feel the current admins are trying and are better than the past admins	Discrepancy between elementary and high school staff. Distance between schools affects staff connections The majority of stakeholders, faculty, students, and parents expressed desires for more communication overall. This will help them feel more a part of the district. Parents want more of a voice. Family training on how to access Edustar and Class Dojo might help, with the same expectations from the teachers. Phone calls, Bi-monthly newsletters, clear communication of events including board meetings Stakeholders cannot yet communicate the vision statement. To help this, the statement could be condensed or made more catchy so it can be verbalized and memorized with ease
