Strategic Plan Workgroup Meeting

Monthly convening. Agenda items to consider for our May meeting:

• Identify new co-chairs and workgroup members (recruit faculty from colleges and MEUSD)
• Align work of PLC, curriculum writing group, strategic plan work groups to achieve consistency
  • How do we (in these workgroups) support PLCs and curriculum writing group(s)?
  • How do we revise the curriculum to align with/meet the needs of the six paths identified in the strategic plan?
  • How do we design all classes with “the end in mind?”
  • How do we integrate work-based learning in (almost) all classes?
• Develop one general and differentiated orientations for different student cohorts and based on common entrance points (i.e., transition services).
• Make transition services an “opt out service.”
• Strengthen articulation/transition to college through connecting with faculty who have moved fully to Canvas.
• Develop a work flow chart for professional learning. (What will the monthly PL day look like?)
• Engage/re-engage business partners (also) with offering new classes (if needed). Explore volunteer and internship opportunities that could lead into employment (when we are able to move into a new normal). Align curriculum with business needs.

Please note: With the start of the new school year, PLCs and Strategic Plan workgroups will alternate meetings. That is, workgroups will meet every other month. When planning for our last meetings for this year (May 19 and tentatively June 16), you might want to take that into consideration.
