Agenda Item Summary: This Board Brief contains information pertaining to department plans drafted in April to map out the division’s strategic response to the closure of school for the remainder of the academic year.
Background: The evolving COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent school closures demanded a need to rapidly and strategically pivot as an organization. The existing department improvement structures put in place over the past two years were leveraged to craft each department’s role in the response. Moving forward these plans will also serve to monitor progress at the department level and the mechanism to ensure continuous improvement and refinement.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the School Board review this Board Brief and attachments for an understanding of the COVID-19 planning process, and plans that detail the work departments are doing to guide the school division through the current circumstances.
