6a.

Our planning team is composed of lifelong educators that bring their years of expertise and dedication to this project. All members have participated in various school based planning committees, at different capacities, throughout their tenure with the DOE. Their expertise ranges from classroom teacher, parent coordinator, school based support team, school support staff, Inquiry analyst, and school administrator. The group's diversity is its strength and the common thread that will bold the team to envision a greater school community.

Our team would benefit the the support of an experience grant writer who will be able to verbalize our mission and transfer it to a written action plan. As educators, we have visions of what we would like our school community to be like, but with the help of a skilled writer, we can materialize it to reality. Also, Are there any schools out there that have been awarded this grant ? If so, is there a template that we can follow ? Arrange for a school visit or create a network with them ? We would benefit from their input.

6b. Member's Roles

The planning team can be divided into sub-teams and assigned to various roles. ex. Leadership Team/ Academic Team/ Parental Involvement Team/ Student Achievement Team/ Technology Team/ Student Support Team/ Student Council Team Team members will participate in one or two of the sub-teams within their area(s) of expertise, help to meet goals, and support the planning process.
