Strategic Plan

2/15/23

 Over the past 6+ months, the District has worked through updating our Continuous School Improvement Plan (CSIP), also known as the Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan sets overall goals for the Lawson R-XIV School District and develops a plan to achieve them. The contents of our plan represent the collective purpose of the Lawson R-XIV School District’s vision, mission, priorities, beliefs, and goals designed for student achievement and success. The plan was created by gaining input from stakeholders, including students, parents, patrons, and staff members.

 The plan creates 4 Priorities for the district and includes 9 Goals:
