During the 2021-2022 school year, our WES Community will collaborate to inform our next strategic plan, a draft of which we anticipate will be presented for Board review in the spring of 2022. We will continue to update this page throughout the year to keep you posted on our progress and provide convenient links to participation opportunities.
If you have any questions or input you would like to convey regarding the WESD Strategic Plan, please send an email to vision@woodsideschool.us
We will have three rounds of community input -- one each at the beginning, middle, and end of this process.
Each round includes online surveys for all community members, and in October and April, we will also have live input session focus groups with the Board, teachers & staff, parents & community.

In addition to community input sessions, we have formed a Strategic Planning Task Force with representatives from our community stakeholder groups to review input, research opportunities, and help to generate/prioritize ideas to consider for Board review. The Task Force will meet on a monthly basis. We anticipate that the Task Force recommendations will be presented to the Board May-June 2022.

To guide the Woodside School’s strategic vision for the next five years, the school community will complete a strategic planning process from January to June 2022. Following a comprehensive input process, school board and community comments, the School Board will approve the visions and five strategic goals for 2022-2027 to be implemented under the direction of the Superintendent in collaboration with school leadership, faculty, staff, parents and broader community.
The Woodside Elementary School Board will work with school staff over the course of the school year to review the five-year plan. With support from the School Site Council, two to three times each year, the Superintendent presents updates to the School Board to highlight accomplishments, monitor progress and, consider any adjustments.
