live reporting - superintendent goals

Superintendent goals

Cafasso -
I think there need to be fewer quick goals.

• The high school
• An early budget process
• Maintain student performance

The principals were here and warned us that the cuts would lead to declines in student performance. I think we need to understand this and stabilize this.

Armenio
I agree with the foreign language analysis. We received the report but we need some actions from it. We should look at this K-12

Mullen
We should also consider a transitional goal, assuming we get an internal candidate.

Roy
Incorporating a budget goal, getting a document beneficial to us and to the financial planning objectives.

Another Franklin's Goals

A year ago, as Franklin, MA prepared for an operational override, Franklin, WI had just rejected an override for their schools.

Visiting the Franklin, WI school department web site I find their school district goals

Their Franklin Education Foundation is prepared to accept donations online.

While the School Committee approved the goals for Superintendent Wayne Ogden, it would be nice to have a copy of the goals to review.
