Outcomes

This intentional plan will allow Dr. Dominguez to: • Strengthen relationships within the organization to recalibrate the system’s collective work. • Listen and learn from all participants in the entry process to better understand where needs exist and formulate initial ideas about future strategic goals. • Ensure that multiple perspectives are heard and understood so that she can see the district through the eyes of those closest to the work. • Learn about the values, norms, and expectations of our community. • Learn about the district’s commitments that are currently prioritized across the organization and how they support student success specifically regarding race, ability, class, and gender. • Identify systems and structures that support student and staff success and identify areas for growth.

The information gathered and summarized during this process will provide: • Summarized findings to share with the community, staff, families, and students for reflection and feedback. • Authentic engagement of community members, staff, students, parents, and community partners that will reveal the collective hopes and dreams. • A strategic plan that clearly identifies a vision, mission, and key strategies focused on propelling Ferndale towards a future of high achievement. • A transparent and fluid process for communication between the district and the community, always centering on what is best for all our children and making the future aspirations of the Ferndale School District community both clear and straightforward.
