The OASD 2019-24 Strategic Plan was developed during the spring semester of 2019 by a team of over 40 individuals, including representatives from every school, district and building administration, and school board members. It was approved unanimously by the School Board at its meeting on July 16, 2019.
We maintain our current mission in the new plan: empowering a community of learners and leaders and will continue to build on our belief that creating a community is essential. Learning and teaching, for that matter, rarely occurs in isolation, and everyone in our buildings plays a role in our mission. So do our students, our parents, our former colleagues, and the business community here in Oconomowoc. We are continuing the vision we identified in our first strategic plan five years ago, but our new strategic plan goes further. Our 2019-24 plan contains aggressive key performance objectives and has focus areas and related tactical plans that are centered around actions to make our vision to become an unrivaled learning community a reality.
Our objectives are based on the performance of our peer districts—those K-12 districts that look most like us demographically in our region and around the state. Those districts include Hamilton, Elmbrook, Kimberly, Muskego, Mukwonago, Pewaukee, Menomonee Falls, and Kettle Moraine. We are also committed to a focus on the whole child, and the district leadership team that drafted this plan was adamant that we also maintain a strong emphasis on balancing our aggressive work to increase student achievement with a targeted focus on our student's social and emotional well being.
Without question, we respect and honor the work that has been done before us, but we will not rest on it, and we will not be complacent. Becoming an unrivaled learning community is not something we can put on our sleeves and make it so. We have to earn it. We will earn it by working continually toward our performance objectives and being driven toward success.
