The Webster Board of Education is committed to providing an excellent, caring educational

environment. We value individual differences and believe in educating the whole child. This includes

developing essential skills: Resilience, Perseverance, Collaboration, Integrity, Time Management, Self

Management, and Communication. All students should graduate ready for success as learners, workers,

and citizens.

The Board of Education is guided by the district's mission, vision, and core beliefs.

Goal 1 -- Academic Program and Student Achievement: Our academic program will provide all students

with the knowledge and skills necessary to be successful throughout their educational experience and

beyond. To ensure that our students can achieve this standard, all district staff will:

● Prioritize literacy through professional development, high-quality instruction, and

research-based curriculum resources.

● Educate the whole child, providing equitable opportunities for students to develop their social,

emotional, physical, and academic skills as they work to achieve district and state standards.

● Challenge students to move beyond proficiency to the mastery level of achievement

through high expectations and rigorous instruction.

● Apply data gathered through Professional Learning Community (PLC) cycle to strengthen

pedagogy and ensure greater consistency within and across curricula.

Goal 2 -- District Climate and Culture: Our district will provide a safe, respectful, and caring environment,

and we will promote the physical, social, emotional, and mental health of our students, our staff, and the

community. To ensure achievement of this goal, all district staff will:

● Create meaningful opportunities for student, staff, and other stakeholder voices to impact

building and district culture.

● Strengthen and align our multi-tiered system of support, using universal and targeted resources to

enable data-based decision making.

● Promote diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts to build understanding and ensure a

welcoming and affirming environment that respects the dignity of all.

● Collaborate with staff, families, and community partnerships to enhance safety, security, and

overall well-being for all students and staff.

Goal 3 -- Operations and Financial Planning: Our financial operations will utilize sound budgeting and

fiscally responsible practices that reflect the interests and values of the school community. These

practices will prioritize educational programs and innovative opportunities for the students of today and

tomorrow. To ensure achievement of this goal, the district will:

● Build educational partnerships to enhance the value of district programs, operations, and

educational opportunities for our students.

● Prioritize improvements of district facilities around curriculum, health and well-being, and safety

and security.

● Share our story with the community to promote the great work of the district and invite

more community members to participate in district voting.

● Forecast future revenues and expenditures to promote financial well-being.
