District 128 Strategic Plan
Portrait of a Learner
District 128 underwent a comprehensive strategic planning process during the 2021 - 2022 School Year. A design team of over 25 individuals, representing multiple stakeholder groups, worked together to establish a framework of competencies to serve as the foundation of our plan.
Over the course of the 2022-2023 School Year, the district will work to establish a set of indicators for each of the five competencies that will serve as a mechanism for measuring success in the development of these competencies across our school community.
Our intent is for competency development to go beyond just our students. We invite our staff, families and community members to embrace a growth mindset in further development of these competencies for all. We believe that in order for our students to develop them, the adults that support them also need to be consciously working on nurturing them.

Competency of the Month
Communication: For the month of October, we are going to focus on strengthening our communications skills within our classrooms and homes. We desire to develop effective communicators by sharing thoughts, ideas, and questions. Communication also involves students working at being active listeners, improving their writing skills, and incorporating technology to share their stories or message.
