FHUSD Education Vision Initiative

FHUSD is currently in the middle of a data gathering initiative involving the various stakeholder groups making up our school community. Based on administrative training by our principal team last year, we are attempting to take a data driven look at our overall school system concerning our most important mission - student achievement. Since last spring we have surveyed and inteviewed students, staff, parents, community leaders and School Board members to gather qualitative data to be combined with our available quantitative demographic and assessment data. On August 18th we will have a committee of these various stakeholder groups review all this data with the support of a consultant from the McREL, Mid-Continent Research for Educational Learning. On August 19th we will set some specific education visions for our district.


Currently we have a parent survey on our district website to gather information. We have had over 200 responses on a two question survey with comments welcomed. It has been very useful and will serve as a cornerstone for our August 18th discussions.


We welcome all input from whatever the source in supporting our belief that FHUSD must practice and apply being a school system focused on continuous school improvement based on data driven systems.
