The Anchorage School Board had begun a new Strategic Planning Process to provide specific guidance and direction for the Anchorage School District for the next several years. This plan will directly shape the School District’s priorities and actions. For this process to be as thorough and comprehensive as possible, the Board needs candid input from community stakeholders (parents, educators, community organizations & business leaders).

Community involvement in this process is necessary for us to develop a clear vision and guiding principles which will help the District to fulfill its mission of educating all students.
