District 140 Conducting Survey as Part of Strategic Planning Process

As part of its strategic planning process launched in January, District 140 is conducting a districtwide survey from February 8 - 22, 2023. The survey is open to employees, parents, students, and community members without students in the District. Involvement of the entire community is important to the long-term framework for decision-making that builds upon the common values held by the District 140 community.

“Effective education of students requires a commitment from our entire community, and we are excited about this inclusive strategic planning process that gives all our stakeholders an opportunity to participate,” said Dr. Dan Callaghan, Superintendent. “I encourage our community to take advantage of this opportunity to help form the future direction of our schools.”

The Strategic Plan Survey link will be available on the District’s website from February 8 - 22, 2023. The survey offers residents an opportunity to answer questions about their perceptions of the schools and their vision for the future of the community’s schools. The link will take participants to a third-party website, and all responses will remain anonymous.

Hazard, Young, Attea, and Associates (HYA), an independent research firm, is conducting the online survey. They will analyze responses and prepare a Strategic Plan report for the District to share with the community in May 2023. HYA has over 35 years of experience helping educational organizations across the nation chart a course for the future.
