School to Hold Long Range Planning Session

I have asked that the school board meet on August 22nd @ 7:30 pm to discuss plans for the Ipswich School District for the future.  This is the same night as the school Open House.  The plan is to have this night be a "night of ideas".  People are welcome to come to the meeting but we would like to remind everyone that no action will be taken at this meeting.  It is simply a night to throw out ideas and see if we can formulate a plan to follow over the next five years.  Some of the items that I hope get addressed at the meeting are;

1. Goal setting (Vision & Mission of the District)
2. Facilities
3. Financial Planning
4. Academic Achievement
5. Professional Development
6. Policy
7. Technology
