Strategic Plan 2020-2025
This guiding document, Blueprint 2025, is provided as a high-level overview of the district’s plan. In addition, we have provided a breakdown of strategies by goal.
Due to the significant and ongoing impact of COVID-19, designation of benchmarked measurable outcomes for each year is difficult to establish at this time. The district will use the 2021 spring assessment results as a baseline for yearly targets based upon each goal.
Parent and Family Engagement School Goals
Bunn Middle School will take the following measures to promote and support parents as an important foundation of the school in order to strengthen the school and reach our school goals:
-
The school regularly communicates with parents/guardians about its expectations of them and the importance of the curriculum at home (what parents can do at home to support their children’s learning).
-
Open House
-
Bulldog Blast: 6th grade orientation
-
Title I Nights

Materials at the front desk are available with information. Many of these materials have strategies for improving your child’s success at school. Our school counselor has information available for any services or needs that families may have.

Bunn Middle believes that parental involvement means the participation of parents in regular two-way and meaningful communication about student academic learning and other school activities. This ensures that parents are full partners in their child’s academic development and are included, as appropriate, in decision-making and on advisory committees to assist in the education of their child. |
School Improvement Team |
Ways to Contact the School |
|---|---|
| The School Improvement Team (SIT) builds teacher and leadership capacity and drives a culture of learning at the school. The SIT forms an integral part of the leadership structure of a school, undertaking the crucial role of developing, overseeing, and evaluating the effectiveness and impact of the School Improvement Plan (SIP) each year. It has responsibility for leading the strategic planning process, providing clear and achievable goals and targets. The team comprises representatives from across the school, and parent reps have a shared understanding of the role the SIT plays in supporting, driving, and monitoring improvement. The SIT supports the school leadership team to build teacher and leadership capacity and strengthens the culture of learning at the school; the school review process underlines this responsibility |
