How can we best prepare our students for success in the workplace? As an educator and the leader of the district, this is a question that must be carefully considered and revisited often to ensure that we are meeting the needs of today’s learners in preparation for both the current workplace and the one of the future. While a rigorous and current academic program is the core of our Tradition of Excellence, this was also one of the guiding questions contemplated during the development of the Vision 2024 Strategic Plan. Skills that were previously identified as “soft” skills have recently taken the forefront of must-have qualities sought by employers. Similarly, our Strategic Planning Council and Steering Committee identified creativity, critical thinking, empathy, and resilience as essential competencies; these became known as the “Habits of Learning” that feed into the ultimate goal of Vision 2024–lifelong learning.
