The Development of a Mission, Vision and Goals

Catalog description

This course will focus on the knowledge, skills, abilities and dispositions educational leaders need to facilitate the process of developing a school’s vision, mission, and goals. Students will discuss how to meet personalized state expectations, state standards, the community and school expectations, and the needs of faculty and students through an inclusive process. Different processes for meeting the demands of the articulated vision, mission, and goals will be researched and discussed. Individuals will have the opportunity to create a process to simulate how they would engage various stakeholders in the development of a clearly articulated vision, mission, and goals; as well as the evaluation systems for analyzing a school's progress toward meeting those goals and overarching vision.
