Pickerington's Plan for Progress

Pickerington has a lot to be proud of as a school district and community, and we are constantly striving to challenge ourselves to become even better!

In order to be efficient and effective in reaching our goals, we know we must have a strategy in place. So, during the next year, we are inviting our community to partner with us in developing our Plan for Progress!

The Plan for Progress will be a roadmap for the district’s future. It will be developed using input from the community – including staff, parents, community members without students in the schools, civic groups, local governments, and businesses.

The Plan for Progress will provide a clear vision of where we are going, ensuring our students are ready for the challenges of today in college, the workforce, and life.

The Plan for Progress is a connection between schools and community that reflects resident and staff input, values, and priorities. The plan is a contract with our community to ensure Pickerington Schools offers a high-quality education while operating in an efficient manner.

The Plan for Progress will provide a roadmap for the future that ensures we are attaining greater levels of efficiency, reaching a higher level of community trust, and graduating students that are prepared for today’s world.

In developing our Plan for Progress, we have identified three primary goals:

Academic Excellence

What must we do to engage all of our students in relevant and rich learning experiences that will prepare them for career, college and life?

Efficient Operations

What can we do now to maximize resources and ensure the school district is operating efficiently?

Modern Facilities

Do our facilities reflect the environment needed to be successful in today’s world? If not, name some ways we can improve?

There are three phases to developing this plan.

Research and stakeholder engagement (now through October 2018)

The district currently is in Phase One of developing the Plan for Progress. We are gathering data and collecting feedback and ideas from our internal and external stakeholders. This process began in spring 2018 with a Community Survey and a survey of district employees.

Developing and defining initiatives (November 2018-February 2019)

Implementation and actions (beginning March 2019)
