EDUCATION SUMMIT SIGN-UP TIME

  From the school district:

Join us for Education Summit 2 on

Tuesday, December 6th, from 7pm-9:30pm

at Columbia High School!

Dear South Orange Maplewood Community,
We hope you will join us at Education Summit 2 to continue the conversation we began a year ago at our first Education Summit, where more than 1,500 community members joined together to share ideas, concerns and hopes for the future of our schools.
Now, a year later, so much work has been done to take the vision and priorities set by our community and develop a new Strategic Plan to guide our District going forward.  Action Planning Teams of volunteers from across the community have spent hundreds of hours developing initiatives to help SOMSD achieve the 9 strategies set by our Strategic Direction Committee.  All of these ideas have grown organically out of the themes we heard from the community at last year's Summit.  We want to share their plans with you!

The evening will begin in the auditorium with a brief orientation with Superintendent Dr. John J. Ramos, Sr.
Participants will then choose to attend up to three break-out sessions and hear directly from members of the Action Planning Teams about the initiatives they are proposing as the first steps in bringing SOMSD closer to our mission.

Please complete this very brief survey to let us know now which topic(s) you plan to participate in at the Summit so that we can identify which topics may need larger or multiple rooms . Note: You do not have to reserve a spot!  This is just for our planning purposes.  You can also reserve a childcare spot either on the survey or by emailing communications@somsd.k12.nj.us.
We hope to see you on December 6th!
