Strategic Plan

2022-2027 Strategic Plan

The plan reflects your feedback and the priorities you identified as necessary to help the Woodbury City Public Schools move forward as a successful school system. Despite the challenges of the last few years, we strongly believe now is the time to move our district forward and embark on a journey to create a better school system for all students in every classroom.The creation and implementation of this five-year plan provides an exciting new chapter for our school community.

This strategic plan is the result of a true collaborative effort. Through a partnership with Made By Change, we held community workshops, focus group sessions, shared survey questions, and welcomed comments. The process began in the Spring of 2021 when we turned to interested parties and collected input from staff, parents, students, members of the Woodbury City Public Schools Board of Education, District administration, and our greater Woodbury community. Priorities were established based on these inputs and in the Fall, a steering committee was formed to create a strategic plan in response. In this process, there were over 500 touch points with our school community.

This plan holds the District accountable to measurable goals that will drive student success now and inthe future. Over the next five years, there is work that needs to be done to continue to move our district forward. We must continue to build on the great foundation that is taking place each and every day and the rich tradition of excellence this great district prides itself on. In the last two years, this sentiment rings as true as ever; our teachers have been the backbone of success through this horrific global pandemic.

What's Next?

As we move forward with our goals, we will continually monitor the identified metrics to make sure we are meeting established targets, and making adequate progress. We are confident that as our community continues to collaborate to achieve long-term goals, we will build upon the tremendous success of our school district, and take it to even greater heights.

A recurring theme throughout our strategic plan is a commitment to excellence and equity for all students. In addition to establishing authentic relationships with students and families, we must ensure we are providing academically rigorous opportunities in socially supportive, equitable learning environments.

We could not be prouder of the collective group of district and community contributors who came together to establish a road map to success. It is truly a privilege to serve the students, staff, and families of the Woodbury City Public Schools. Our future is bright and we look forward to all that we will accomplish together! On behalf of the Board of Education and all of our staff and students, thank you for your continued engagement in our school community.

Educationally yours,
Mr. Andrew T Bell Sr., Superintendent
Kathy Mangeri, Board President
