Input for the new strategic plan was not limited to the three community work sessions. Superintendent Shafer held a series of roundtable discussions throughout the 2018-2019 school year with different stakeholder groups including teachers, administrators, support staff and students.

Members of the Board of Education were also part of the process. Some members participated in the community planning sessions. Kathleen Helewa of the NJSBA appeared before the board a number of times during the school year keeping them apprised of the development of the strategic plan. Board members received a draft of the strategic plan’s goals and objectives, and were invited to ask questions, make recommendations or suggest amendments to the draft.
