What this document actually says

This is Reed Union School District's six-year strategic plan (2024-2030) showing goals and first-year progress across multiple areas. The plan focuses on Academic Excellence through integrated learning experiences connecting subjects like math and music, hands-on real-world projects, and leadership skill development. Year 1 actions include teacher training in Project-Based Learning (12 Del Mar staff completed training), expanded field trip budgets ($5,000 per trip), new technology pilots including AI tools, Spanish integration teachers at Reed Elementary, and student leadership programs at all sites. The plan tracks metrics like number of integrated lessons, student satisfaction surveys, and standardized test results (CAASPP, MAP). Budget allocations include $20,000 for leadership consultants and approximately $100,000 annually for curriculum adoptions.

What this means for your family
