Dr. Avis Williams, SCS Superintendent, said the COVID-19 pandemic forced the plan to get updated.

“So much has changed since  then and we are responding by updating our plan with new, robust and timely strategies and goals,” Williams said. “The pandemic  caused us to have to pivot forward and it changed our thinking. However, it did not change our commitment to  excellence and this new strategic plan speaks to that.”

SCS will introduce a new area, safety and wellness. This area will focus on physical, emotional,  and mental safety of scholars and staff with the objective of fostering healthy minds and bodies in a safe and engaging  learning environment. 

The summit will be  shared live on the SCS Facebook page. Stakeholders are encouraged to review the plan and provide  feedback.

After the summit, a draft of the plan will be available on the SCS website with a link for  parents, guardians, and community members to provide their feedback.
