Process ● Last formal study was 10 years ago. Last major refinement was 5 years
ago at the elementary level. ● A series of meetings were offered to provide feedback to the Design Team.
It is not being done in isolation…. ● Everything must align: Birth to Grade 5 Study, Secondary Study, Special
Education Study, Community Education Study, Counseling and Advising Study, etc.
