SCHOOL BOARD APPROVES 2024-28 STRATEGIC PLAN

At its Monday, March 18 Work Session, the School Board approved the District's 2024-28 Strategic Plan and Strategic Direction Measures. The approval of the plan comes after months of collaboration, discussion and feedback loops with internal stakeholders as well as board members. 

The 2024-28 Strategic Plan honors the work that was done several years ago by internal and external stakeholders by maintaining the essence of the previous plan, while at the same time making small changes to ensure that the plan reflects the current direction of Waconia Public Schools. As part of the process, the District also developed new strategic directions, including metrics and measurements to accompany those directions, which will help the District track its progress toward key goals.

WINTER WEATHER REMINDERS

In alignment with past practices, if inclement weather forces District leaders to cancel in-person instruction during the 2023-24 school year, the first two instances would result in no-school days for students. Any subsequent weather-related closures would result in the District implementing a flex-learning day. Students in grades 5-12 would use their devices to access learning plans on Schoology. Families with students in grades K-4 would receive learning plans via email from teachers that morning. 

In all cases of cancellations, late starts, and early dismissals, notification will be sent directly to families through Infinite Campus by phone, email, and text message. Information will also be posted on the district website and the district's social media channels. Click here for full information.
