Horseheads Strategic Plan


The Strategic Plan Project

The Horseheads Central School District is currently developing a Strategic Plan, which means we'll be analyzing every major aspect of the district, and we'll use that information to set up a plan to guide us for the next ten years or more. The project will take 12 to 18 months to complete. It began in September 2008.

This important project involves analyzing district operations, involving our community in our work and discussions, and using the data we learn from the analyses to create action plans for the future. Included is an environmental scan, demographic study, facilities capacity study, and the software to assist with planning, along with a community engagement survey involving all stakeholder groups.


Core Committee

A 60-member Core Committee, made up of representatives from district staff, parents, senior citizens, businesspeople, and community members, will guide the strategic planning process. Their meeting agendas and minutes will be posted here.

Task Forces
