The district signed a pledge to be a Future Ready District. The pledge
is offered through Future Ready Schools, a project of the Alliance for
Excellent Education that provides educators with research-based tools
and resources to promote a modern learning environment.
Future Ready Schools describes its mission as helping innovative
educators ensure that each student graduates from high school with the
agency, passion and skills to be a productive, successful and
responsible citizen. By taking the pledge, district leadership teams
will be offered the chance to attend professional learning events,
participate in webinars, learn about additional activities and events,
and get free access to the interactive planning dashboard.
Superintendent of Schools Dr. Jennifer Morrison said, “Offering
innovative programs to our students, and supporting our staff in their
development of those skills, is crucial to providing a well-balanced
education. I am excited to take this pledge and be part of this
network.”
As stated on futureready.org, the Future Ready Schools
network emphasizes vision, culture, leadership, strong pedagogy, goal
setting and the critical role of people in personalized learning.
The district joins more than 3,400 schools nationwide in taking the pledge.
