We just found out that our March visit has been postponed and we will now be hosting the AMS site visit team in the fall and the CAIS site visit team in the winter. We are looking for more people to help with this project. We are still writing several standards, need to collect more data, proof and edit what we have already done, gather supporting documents, create the final documents and help planning for the visiting team. If you are interested please talk to Marci or Nicole.
- 9. Planning for the Future During the accreditation process we have learned so much about ourselves which has lead us create a strategic vision plan. As a staff, we’ve begun to develop this plan but recognize that we need to solicited your impute so that we have a shared vision with common goals. This will allow us all to be equally invested and responsible to carry out our hopes and dreams for the future. One of the questions that has been weighing heavily is how to grow the elementary program.
