That each child feels that they matter. Students succeed to their highest potential whatever their
level of learning. Students to be happy. Each student to have the skills to contribute to society in a
positive way. Students feel safe within the school environment. Have the skills/self confidence to succeed and fulfill their
dreams. The adults in the community can come to a plan and
consensus so our students don’t suffer. Kids get the chance to participate, not be stars, and just get
to participate. Students feel cared for and nurtured by staff during their
educational process. Produce students who love learning and become life-long
learners. All students should be able to say school was a good
experience. Provide students with needed 21st Century Skills (i.e. –
collaboration, problem solving and resourcefulness) Children have a dream or direction for their own future. Appreciation for all the privileges that our kids have and to
direct themselves in ways that pave the way for future generations.
Keep active curiosity alive. Nurture and encourage that in all students.
Develop students that are respectful and appreciative. Get children to reach their potential. Success – whatever it means. Teaching to kids learning style. Participate in all of the High School. Be productive. All kids find someone or something to connect with. Successful in life. Leave school prepared for success. School should be a good and enjoyable time. Make connections and reach to their potential. Find passion and let that drive them to whatever goals they
set for themselves. Students now keep excitement about learning and pass on
to next generation.
Well-rounded in school and activities so they can “take-off” after graduation.
Become passionate about something and move forward. Follow their dreams. Be proud of themselves and what they do. Happy. Have a great learning experience and love
education. Kids coming from any walk of life can get their education
and feel that they can go on. Equal opportunity for everyone. Prepared for the real world. Be ready for the future. Able to adapt to the future. See reality. Take time and find balance in life. Not get distracted and lose track of final dream. Have the ability to know what we want fro like. Come back and have the ability to say we are where we
want to be. Be happy. Be able to come together as a whole student body. Prepared once they graduate. Have a plan. Diverse group at school. Represents the real world. Provide foundation for success. School is a positive experience. Safe and good self image. Be involved in extracurricular activities. All students graduate. Be college ready. Be fulfilled in life and find independence for students with
special needs. All kids have a positive experience, be happy. All to learn and learn well if you can’t go to college. All students get the vision of 2016. Every student has an equal opportunity regardless of ethnic,
socio-economic status to leave Shakopee Public schools to be productive.

Framework for Education ForwardGuiding Coalition Assessment of Current District Strengths and Weaknesses
April, 2014Arena of Work; financial, human and physical resources, the programs and services design and delivery
+Strengths: Like current programs offered – Knowledge Bowl, band,
sports, AP/CIS programs, STEM, tech ed, FACS Individual attention ESL program, KEI program Parent/Child – ECFE Community willing to foot-the-bill for education Support in programs and resources Good job on zoning education – socio economic Teachers are fantastic AP/CIS courses Splitting kids 9th grade needs to be at High School District finance is very good Teachers accessibility Concurrent enrollment Board committed to teachers Good class sizes Passionate teachers Project Lead the Way CIS/AP programs District uses resources to help struggling kids Extra opportunities – community ed Dedication and technology used by teachers (i.e. – video
teaching in math – creative ways to meet levels of all kids)
Overall facilities are very good AVID programs
-Weaknesses: Not up on technology More flexibility on zoning Opportunities with our growth Missing many programs – marching band, skiing,
gymnastics Still growing in to standards “handling growth” and
moving from small schools to larger district Are we behind in technology – staff development? Building offerings and parallel Constant changes in boundaries due to growth Behind in advance classes Missing the middle level kids Get better at tapping into kids’ strengths Customized learning seems to track kids too early Systems responsive to pacing Hybrid classes Need to connect schools to community How do we expand opportunities – connect businesses
with student potential Bussing Difficult to cover all material in time frame given due to
so many multiple levels of learning Not enough creative intereaction between students and
teachers (innovation) Facilities are weak Libraries aren’t really as useful anymore District pushes things and then they fizzle Need to start foreign language programs earlier

Framework for Education ForwardGuiding Coalition Assessment of Current District Strengths and Weaknesses
April, 2014Organization; the structure and systems, policies, procedures and practices, communications, staff development as well as parent, family and community connections+Strengths:
Technology courses and technology used District using resources for student improvement and
their forward thinking & vision Cultural liaisons Building elementary growth Facilities are outstanding for learning environments Good facilities with land Org structure similar to other districts Financial position – well positioned for growth
-Weaknesses: Over crowding Lack of extra curricular activities Teacher websites – some good, some not good,
inconsistent Security, YMCA security More focus on meeting with parents, teacher
communication, need for welcome center Students wants one high school Community wants one high school Less than optimal teaming of school and community
with shared facilities Not good when elementary kids are at sports practices
until 10:0 at night Lacking good high potential/gifted & talented
programming Students should have more opportunity to enter high-
end universities Community is hesitant to change – fragile state Division of what citizens think Shakopee “should be” Low level of parent involvement Connecting with families Communication Consistence between secondary buildings with policies –
grading and expectations Communication Social media needs to happen earlier What is the plan? Teachers say they are always here for us but some don’t
show up until right before school starts, some don’t keep word about scheduling
Teachers Assistants (TAs) would be helpful in communication between teacher and students
Need a reliable system for accessing teacher help outside of school day
Framework for Education Forward9 | P a g e
Guiding Coalition Assessment of Current District Strengths and WeaknessesApril, 2014
Culture; the district identity and reputation, history and story, relational right ways, and our operating assumptions and preferences+Strengths:
Welcoming & supportive staff Teacher/student relationships District’s desire to connect with the community Cultural benefits of expanding diversity Changing population is a direct reflection of our
community, state and country. It’s the world our kids live in
Students are very comfortable with change Openness to involvement Value education Strong sense of community Small town Connected to history Growing opportunities Balancing diversity Teachers & staff are committed Diversity Growing Open to new things Diversity Leadership Strong STEM program
-Weaknesses: Student behavior – lack of respect, poor/inappropriate
language Disconnect with community Challenging curriculum based on student abilities Over crowding Perception of changes in diversity as “uncomfortable” Perception that diversity has a negative impact on
academic achievement Fragile community Small town – that’s the way we’ve always done it Discussions focused on the growth rather than
academics Playing catch up – always behind the growth Different generations of Shakopee seeing things
differently Working with businesses for real-world education
opportunities How people view the education program in Shakopee Meeting the needs of diverse groups
