Strategic Plan Development

The School District of Palm Beach County is in the process of developing its next strategic plan, that will outline the District’s top priorities over the next three to five years and provide a collective focus for us as an organization.

All of the resources created around the development of the next strategic plan will be centralized here so that students, parents, community organizations, District employees, and other stakeholders can follow along as the development process unfolds over the next several months.

We hope you will access these resources frequently and choose to get involved by sharing your feedback with us; the School District of Palm Beach County is listening! More information on opportunities for involvement can be found under Quick Links.

Thank you for your continued interest in this process and we look forward to your participation!


Timeline for Strategic Plan Development

The journey toward the new strategic plan started in March 2021. The following timeline outlines how the process will unfold to have a final, Board-approved plan in place before the first day of the 2022-2023 school year.


Stakeholder Engagement Plan

Feedback collected from students, parents, community organizations, District employees, and other stakeholders will be used to inform the development of draft goals and associated measures for the next strategic plan.

A stakeholder engagement subcommittee composed of internal District staff representing multiple departments has created an engagement plan that includes a Phase 1 Survey for collecting community input as well as Phase 2 Focus Groups. The stakeholder engagement plan was designed to provide individuals with multiple outlets for feedback, and a high level overview of the plan can be seen below.
