Portrait of a Graduate Design Team
The Portrait of a Graduate Design Team was charged with the task of developing Milford Schools’ vision for the optimally prepared graduate by identifying a prioritized set of competencies that will best prepare students for success now and in the future.
The broad-based Design Team learned about landscape shifts and then crafted its vision for student success, called Portrait of a Graduate.
The Design Team includes student, parent/family, educator, business, and other community perspectives.
