School district seeks input on strategic plan

The Board of Education of School District No. 57 (Prince George) has embarked on a program to develop a shared mission, vision, core values and goals that will provide overall strategic direction for the school district over the next five years. Members of the community are invited to participate in the research component of this project.

“Community engagement is important, as it will allow us to gain valuable insight into the current state of our school district and its future potential,” said Board Chair Tony Cable. “Members of the community, school staff, district support staff and educational partners will work together at each of the nine engagement sessions to be held in Mackenzie, Valemount, McBride and Prince George during April and May, providing important points of view on K‑12 learning in our district.”

Board Vice-Chair Brenda Hooker explained that a separate registration site is available at:

“This is an important project for School District No. 57 as we prepare our strategic direction for the next five years,” said Vice Chair Hooker. “I am sure the community will find the project interesting and I am confident that we would benefit from your involvement in this engagement session.”

As each event can accommodate only a limited number of people, interested individuals are urged to register early via the above link, which is also available on the school district’s website www.sd57.bc.ca
