Strategic Planning
Strategic planning is a process that empowers stakeholders, such as parents,
students, district employees, city officials, business partners, and clergy, to
collaboratively shape the future of their school district. Through this process, the
district and community become partners in creating a five-year plan. This
shared sense of ownership enables districts to overcome obstacles and discover
new possibilities for students. All school districts reach a point where they must
reinvigorate their practices, and create new systems, or face decline. The
strategic planning process galvanizes the community around a common
purpose, bringing new life to the district.

Strategic Planning Process
Through the strategic planning process, stakeholders from across the community were brought
together to assess the needs of and to offer input on the direction Fredericksburg I.S.D. should
take over the next three years. The strategic planning process helped to identify a common
set of beliefs that are unique to the community. Every action in the strategic plan was
purposefully aligned with the community’s beliefs. Community members also harmonized their
beliefs and created the district’s vision and mission, which became the foundation of the
strategic plan. The stakeholders assessed the strengths, challenges, opportunities, and threats
the district faced in certain focus areas, or strands, identified by school leadership. This
information helped set targets for growth, or SMART goals, for each strand, along with strategies
the district will employ to reach these targets. Finally, a team of content area experts mapped
out the action steps necessary to achieve each strategy. Care was taken by the Action
Planning Team to give direction and specificity, yet allow leeway as the action steps are
implemented by district personnel over the coming five years.
Authentic community and family engagement
is key to creating opportunities for students to
develop the 21st century skills necessary for
success in a global society.

Virtual Plan
A web resource has been created to house the virtual strategic plan. The virtual
plan contains all of the information found within this report. Additionally, fields can
be added to aid in implementation and revision of the plan. Examples of additional
information to be added include timelines, person(s) responsible, necessary
resources, means of measuring implementation of the plan. A strategic plan is a
living document that undergoes updates and revisions over time. It is important to
note that updates can be made by anyone provided with the following link:

The remaining pages of the report contain the stakeholder-driven, five-year
strategic plan for Fredericksburg I.S.D. The ensuing contents of the strategic plan
are broken out into strands identified as focus areas for the strategic plan. The
vision, mission, and community beliefs guided the direction of the planning
committees and provided a foundation for the plan. Finally, goals, strategies, and
action steps are outlined for each strand.
