Video - Strategic Planning Student Focus Groups VIDEO This video was shown at the February 29, 2012 Strategic Planning Session. It was OUR way to include student voices in the planning for our District. There are some ideas heard loud and clear....Students need hands-on learning, projects, experiments, active learning, creativity, collaboration, access to technology, and working in groups. We need to provide students with the essential foundation of a 21st century education to prepare them to think and learn in a global society.
