The Northshore School District held a study session on August 10, 2026, focused on refreshing the district's strategic plan. The meeting centered on refining the mission statement, setting clear goals, and ensuring coherence across the district's educational practices. Dr. Campbell, hired to facilitate the process, provided updates on the extensive engagement with students, staff, and community members to shape the vision of the student experience and the theory of action. The board discussed the importance of measurable, student-centered goals that include equity considerations such as data disaggregation by student groups. While no direct procurement or contracting decisions were made, the meeting highlighted the district's prior competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process that led to Dr. Campbell's selection, emphasizing the value of a rigorous vendor evaluation.
