#R7Proud:

The Lee’s Summit R-7 School District located in Lee’s Summit, Missouri is home to nearly 18,000 of the

%inest students in the country. We are very proud of our community and the school district is a large rea-

son why. The continued growth of the Lee’s Summit area is frequently attributed to the quality of schools

and the long-standing tradition of excellent student achievement results. This has been and remains a

desired career destination for some of the most dedicated and talented educators in the Midwest and

beyond.

TheProcessandStakeholderInvolvement:

The development of Destination2021was a collaborative process involving over 120 internal and ex-

ternal stakeholders over the course of seven months. Three focus groups started the process for strate-

gic planning by reviewing the district’s pre-

vious %ive-year plan in February and March

2016 to set the stage for the development of

Destination2021. Using the input from

the work of the focus groups, the CSIP Team,

comprised of 53 stakeholders met four eve-

nings in April and May 2016 to begin draft-

ing the R-7 strategic plan. Beyond the focus

group participants and CSIP Team members,

dozens of staff members had the opportuni-

ty to review, provide feedback and make

suggestions into the district’s 2016-2021

strategic plan. The Board of Education re-

viewed and provided additional input into the plan at its annual work session in June and ultimately ap-

proved the plan August 18, 2016. Meeting the district’s mission of preparing each student for success in

life remains at the forefront of the Board of Education’s focus moving forward.
