In the spirit of continuous improvement, the district is working to refresh and rethink its Core Values, Beliefs, Mission/Vision Statement before the 2025-2026 school year. We believe that these things should be grounded in the community's needs and priorities.
Engaging the entire community provides an excellent opportunity for members of our community to share their thoughts on what we do well and where we can grow, always focusing on our students' life long-journeys. A representative district-wide committee will continue to spend time planning and analyzing stakeholder input/suggestions as we navigate this process.
THE WHY:
Our current "Mission Statement" has served the district well for over 15 years.
This future-focused planning and community engagement effort will define how the ELSD strives to serve students in the future and the steps needed to get there.
THE ELSD IS SEEKING TO:
Inform & Engage - Update and share the ELSD’s Core educational Values, Beliefs, Mission and Vision based on the feedback provided by stakeholders.
Develop and set forth - the expectations of the teachers, students, administrators, parents, and community based on input from stakeholders.
Develop an updated district graphic encompassing the district's core values
Please take the time to fill out the short survey. It will be open for the month of April.
