Agenda Item Summary:
|
This year the School Board was provided an updated 2025 Strategic Planning Committee Data Workbook to inform each member on different ACPS performance metrics. The workbook has been updated to include available SY 18-19 data. Board members should review chapters 2-5 of the workbook prior to the September 5 Work Session and note what top three priorities emerge within each chapter. Priorities should include the “what, who, and where.” For example, instead of listing “English Learners” a more specific priority would be “English Learners’ On-Time Graduation Rate.” This priority lists the what (On-Time Graduation); the who (EL); and the where (high school). This level of specificity will best inform the division’s Combined-Funds budget process and ensure tight alignment with the School Board Combined-Funds budget priorities.
Board Members’ individual priorities will be used to complete a group prioritization exercise during the work session on September 5, 2019. This exercise will develop the Combined-Funds budget priorities for FY 2021.
Please be reminded that the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget includes priorities for facilities, safety and security, transportation, information technology and textbooks. The facilities assessments will help guide the discussions related to capacity and non-capacity facilities-related priorities.
The FY 2021 budget priorities are to be discussed and finalized during the September 5, 2019 School Board Work Session and will be submitted to the Board for adoption on September 26, 2019.
