Collaboration from many within the SMSD community is essential to bringing this Strategic Plan to reality. The Strategic Plan was developed by community members and adopted by the Board of Education in June 2024. There are opportunities to be involved with the following strategies: learning, belonging, people, technology, and mental health.

Action teams are kicking off in the first quarter to begin their work. Those who apply or nominate now have the opportunity to serve on teams starting later in the school year.

Here are descriptions of each Action Team strategy that SMSD seeks nominations/applications for as outlined in the Strategic Plan:

          Learning: We will ensure meaningful and personalized learning experiences for all students.

          Belonging: We will intentionally strengthen our unified, equitable, inclusive culture to ensure belonging for all.

          People: We will enhance our community- centered environment to recruit and retain diverse and exemplary educators,                  staff, and families by being the best place to learn, work, and connect.

          Technology: We will ensure the intentional and innovative use of relevant technology throughout the district to achieve our            mission.

          Mental Health: We will foster an environment that supports the mental, social, and emotional well-being of the entire                      SMSD learning community, including physical well-being.
