Strategic Plan
Developed by the students, families, and staff of Stillwater Area Public Schools
We asked students, families and staff what they wanted from our schools. And it turns out, they just want more of the things that really matter. They want engaging, relevant learning experiences. They want personal connections and opportunities for kids to find their place. They want to belong. To be challenged. To have a voice. They want to know students in our schools will be well prepared for their future.
We are committed to creating a culture that supports students and staff so that they can be their best. We want our entire community to “Expect More” from Stillwater Area Public Schools. So we’re shifting our focus, realigning our resources and developing a clear plan to ensure the things you want are the things we’re providing. We’re raising our expectations, not by doing more things, but by doing a few fundamental things better.
