Agenda Item Summary: The attached presentation presents key division-level data from SY 21-22 and the draft ACPS Areas of Focus for the 2022-2023 school year. The Areas of Focus represent multi-year efforts in critical areas identified through data and aligned with the ACPS Equity for All strategic plan and the FY 23 Board Budget Priorities. The Areas of Focus allow for clear organizational alignment and prioritization of work across the entire system.
Background: The ACPS Areas of Focus highlight specific areas for intentional prioritization and aligned efforts during the course of the current school year. As in previous years, the 2022-23 Areas of Focus were arrived upon through the utilization of data-informed decision making
within this specific process as well as within other key governance structure processes such as the implementation of the strategic plan and FY 2023 budget prioritization. The ACPS Equity for All 2025 strategic plan serves as the overall roadmap for the Areas of Focus by setting the organizational vision, mission, core values, goals, and strategies. Likewise, the Board Budget Priorities set last fall and last year’s Areas of Focus inform the current year. Along with alignment to the overall guiding documents of the strategic plan and budget priorities, the Areas of Focus are key priorities set to guide reconnection, support, and recovery from the continuing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the School Board review the draft 2022-23 Areas of Focus.
