District reports one year of professional-learning data, plans KPIs for next strategic-plan phase
Dr. Wilson, who presented the district’s professional-learning update at the Oct. 21 board meeting, told the board that the district’s switch to the Frontline platform produced a year’s worth of data the district will use to design the next phase of its strategic plan.

"On average, staff members across the district completed 31 (hours) a year," Dr. Wilson said, and she reported the aggregate numbers: 13,387 hours recorded across 5,413 entries, covering 482 topics and 432 staff members (including 19 school administrators, 305 teachers and 108 other staff), all of which the district categorized against the strategic-plan goals and seven teaching standards.

Wilson said the data were organized into three broad buckets: supporting diverse student needs (including DEI, MTSS, SEL and restorative practices); curriculum and instruction design (for example, math and literacy work); and program design (large-scale programs such as Leader in Me and Ready Academy). She said the platform requires staff to tag learning events to the strategic-plan goals when they register, which improves alignment between professional development and board priorities.

Wilson told the board the district will move from an auditing and assessing phase to one driven by KPIs (key performance indicators) in the next strategic-plan phase (2026–29). She listed candidate KPI areas that will be quantified and monitored: attendance, suspension reductions, academic performance (grades 3–8), high-school credit accumulation and graduation-tracking metrics.

Wilson described monitoring responsibilities: the Office of Curriculum and Instruction will "fan out" across the district to monitor implementation, with named leads for curriculum, MTSS and DEI work. Board members asked about checkpoints and adjustments; Wilson said the office already uses an internal monitoring process and will bring KPI proposals and regular progress updates to the board.

No vote was required for the informational report.
