OXFORD — School Superintendent Rick Colpitts told the SAD 17 Board of Directors that the data from a recent Strategic Planning Committee forum is being analyzed.
Colpitts told the board at its Monday night meeting that the information is being reviewed by the committee’s facilitator, Duke Albanese.
Albanese is a senior policy adviser at Great Plains Partnership and served as state education commissioner during Gov. Angus King’s term. Since July, he has worked with the committee on the Strategic Plan.
The Strategic Planning Team, representing longtime community members, alumni, parents of students, former teachers, SAD 17 board members, current teachers and administration, has been engaged in launching a strategic planning process for the next five to 10 years.
The group held a public forum this month, which drew about 150 people from the Oxford Hills School District with ideas for the future of local education.
The idea for the group began in July 2012, when Superintendent Rick Colpitts told directors it would be part of an effort to develop a vision for students, providing them with what could be a vastly different educational environment than the one they see now.
The Strategic Planning Committee is expected to meet Jan. 15 to review the facilitator’s findings.
