Overview of the Process Over a period of eight months, we established and met monthly with a Steering Committee made up of students, families, district staff, and community members to develop the strategic plan. To develop the plan, we completed a needs assessment by analyzing student achievement data, qualitative and quantitative district data, and gathered input from a broad array of stakeholders through several strategic planning surveys, a series of focus groups, and numerous school board work sessions. We are very grateful for the time and input that so many people brought to this process which has resulted in a plan that will benefit the students, families, and staff members of the Maplewood Richmond Heights School District and contribute to the growth and success of our community in the future.
