2 Minneapolis Public Schools MPS is in the process of creating a new district strategic plan for Last fall, we conducted an initial round of stakeholder engagement opportunities with our internal groups (e.g. parents, teachers, etc.) We used what we heard from those engagements, as well as guidance from MPS leadership and an extensive review of our current state data to create a draft strategic plan. We will be sharing this draft publicly at the Board of Education meeting on May 13th. Following this presentation, we want to reach out to both internal AND external stakeholder groups to get feedback on the draft plan. For external partners, this would include a brief presentation providing an overview of the plan (with time for Q&A) and structured questions for feedback: How do you see your work as being aligned/not aligned to this plan? and What would we need to do in order to make this plan successful?
