Join our GDRSD Strategic Vision Committee!
We are looking for members of our Groton-Dunstable community to serve on a Strategic Vision Team focused on charting a future course for GDRSD as a dynamic learning organization designed to continuously improve and inspire our students preK-12!
I am looking for 20-25 members of our community to guide and facilitate the creation of a multi-year strategic vision document that will serve as our organizational compass. Where would you like to see our school community in three or four years? What is our mission and how do our core values guide us in establishing a clear vision for the future?
In order to build a shared vision, it is critical many voices are heard, diverse perspectives are considered, creative ideas are explored, and feedback/participation comes from many across both towns. We need participation from students, parents/guardians, family members, citizens, community leaders, teachers and staff, school and district leaders, School Committee members, and town leaders.
The goal will be to have members of our strategic vision committee identified by the end of May (this month), with our first meeting scheduled for a day in June prior to the last day of school. Committee members will participate in 1-2 likely virtual or hybrid meetings over the course of the summer, and then meet again in the fall to plan and facilitate community forums designed to provide ideas and feedback for the first draft of a multi-year strategic plan.
Thank you in advance for your interest in this endeavor - if you are interested in serving on this committee, or in learning more about the process, please EMAIL ME: gbruno@gdrsd.org.

Our educators are working tirelessly to inspire our kids to achieve, develop their own unique passions and talents, and build a sense of belonging and community within our schools. The personnel reductions and cuts experienced over the last two years have impacted all of us, and it is critical to steady the ship, prevent further reductions, and have the necessary resources to move our district and school improvement plans forward and build a shared vision for our future citizens!
