CPSD Strategic Planning Progress Report and Invitation for Feedback

April 25, 2018

Greetings,

I hope this email finds you and your families well.

In February 2018, the Cranford Public School District successfully launched its 2018-2023 Strategic Planning initiative. As described in my introductory communication on January 16, 2018, the purpose of Strategic Planning is to come together as a community to 1) examine and identify current strengths, challenges, and opportunities; 2) determine a desired future for our District; and 3) formulate goals and actionable steps to achieve our goals and, ultimately, realize our vision.

To this end, it is with utmost pleasure and appreciation that I provide the following progress report detailing all activities and achievements, to date (once you review the information below, I respectfully encourage you to complete the online Strategic Planning Progress Feedback Survey):

• The CPSD Strategic Planning Information Session. This program was successfully delivered on February 20th and provided all members of the Cranford Public School District community an opportunity to learn more about the purpose, process and desired outcomes of Strategic Planning. Participants engaged in experiences that allowed them to exchange perspectives, insights and ideas, and envision a desired future for our District. Feedback from those in attendance was extremely positive.
• The Administration of the CPSD Strategic Planning Survey. This online survey was successfully administered across the CPSD community during the period of January 29th - February 9th. Over 500 CPSD community members responded to the survey. Data was collected with anonymity and will continue to inform the work of the Strategic Planning Steering Committee, Strategic Planning Council and District Administrative Team.
• The Establishment of the CPSD Strategic Planning Steering Committee. The CPSD Strategic Planning Steering Committee, comprised of the Administrative Team, BOE leadership, PTC leadership, and CEA leadership, was established to guide the planning, logistics and sustained oversight of the initiative.
• The Establishment of the CPSD Strategic Planning Council. To further ensure full representation across our great community, we established the CPSD Strategic Planning Council. Nearly 60 representatives of the CPSD community - including parents/guardians, teachers, administrators, students, and business and community members - volunteered to participate in a series of three cohesive work sessions (to date). Information regarding these sessions, including agendas, presentation slides and related resources, can be accessed and reviewed at: https://www.cranfordschools.org/Page/1103

During each of the aforementioned work sessions, our Strategic Planning Council members worked most diligently, collegially and enthusiastically to draft the recommended core values/beliefs, mission, vision, and goal statements upon which we will build the strategic action plans that will guide our targeted efforts throughout the next five years. A summary of these draft products can be accessed and reviewed at: Draft Strategic Planning Products

Important, on behalf of the CPSD Strategic Planning Council, I respectfully encourage you to complete the online Strategic Planning Progress Feedback Survey. This survey will be available through Friday, May 4, 2018. As always, your feedback is most valued and appreciated.

• Strategic Action Planning. Throughout the upcoming weeks, I will be working closely with the CPSD Administrative Team and Strategic Planning Council to develop comprehensive strategic action plans. Once complete, we will share the final product for review and feedback, prior to BOE presentation and ultimate approval.

Essential to the success of our Strategic Planning process is the comprehensive representation and full participation of the Cranford Public School District community - parents/guardians, teachers, administrators, students, and business and community members.  Evidently, our community has certainly united in support of this most important endeavor.

In closing, I would like to take advantage of this opportunity to express my most heartfelt gratitude to each of our Strategic Planning Steering Committee and Council members. Please know how very grateful I am for the personal sacrifice and hard work each has put forth on behalf of the CPSD community. Be very proud of your collaborative efforts and achievements.

All my very best,

Dr. Scott Rubin

Superintendent of Schools
