Dear MPS partners and friends,
At Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS), we believe in the potential of all students to succeed. In 2007, we adopted a district strategic plan committing to a vision of “Every Child College and Career Ready.” This plan will expire at the end of this year, and although we have made good progress, we have not yet achieved that vision.
The time is right to re-engage with our community, recommit to our shared goals and define how we are going to accelerate our progress. This is the work of creating our strategic plan through 2020.
We are not starting from scratch. The draft plan includes a recalibration and recommitment to many major priorities that are midstream. It is a student-focused, equitable and inclusive plan that I believe will help guide the work of our staff and community partners through the year 2020. Most importantly, it will lead to accelerated gains for all of our students.
The proposed 2020 strategic plan is the product of extensive stakeholder listening, a comprehensive review of our current data and the hard work of a tremendous team of about 40 MPS leaders who have been heavily involved in developing this draft. View the proposed plan in English, Hmong, Somali or Spanish. For more information on the planning process and additional details, please visit our strategic plan website.
I encourage you to help us finalize the plan by engaging in one or more of the following opportunities:

I encourage you to help us finalize the plan by engaging in one or more of the following opportunities:
- Join us on Monday, June 9, from
5:30-7 p.m. at the Davis Center (1250 W. Broadway) to share feedback on
the proposed plan.
- Take a survey about the
proposed plan
- Send any questions or comments

Helping our students succeed takes the commitment and dedicated efforts of everyone – teachers, principals and staff, parents and families, our community partners and our city residents. I hope you will add your voice to the creation of a shared vision for the future.
Sincerely,
