Promoting Positive School and District Culture
I am sharing an update about our work to promote positive school and District culture. The work of initiative 2A in the SPPS Achieves Strategic Plan is to improve culture by using input from students, staff and families. Ultimately, the goal is to create an environment where all staff feel a sense of belonging. That means staff members are positively engaged and empowered in their work, and inspired to lead courageously. In the coming weeks, the 2A initiative team will be conducting an online pilot survey for staff at nine schools and four department sites.
