2023-2024 Board Goals
The Board of Education is critical to the success of any community. Focused on student achievement, a Board focuses on Vision, Accountability, Policy, Community Leadership, and Relationships (National School Boards Associations). While these areas of focus encompass a wide variety of tasks required of a Board, but its overarching function is to ensure, through oversight and maintenance of policy, that a district is well run. To ensure that a district does not become complacent, a Board of Education provides constant vigilance to ensure that the district, from a global perspective, is always growing, always maximizing its impact for students and through students, the larger community.
While the focus of the Board is relatively unchanging, the specific outcomes needed from one year to the next must focus on the immediate needs. This is not to say that the Board is not constantly overseeing the operations of the district. Rather, goals are statements of short-term outcomes that are in line with the long-term focus a Board seeks to achieve.
For this reason, the Bridgewater-Raritan Board of Education has set the following goals for the 2023-2024 school year:
