Strategy - Stow Munroe Falls City School District

■ A key purpose of schooling is to ensure that
each child, regardless of background, learns
to think, reason and use his or her mind well.
■ The school district is organized to encourage
children to use knowledge to solve problems
rather than passively absorb knowledge to
be used at some other time.
■ District-level staff supports initiatives from
the school buildings that are designed to
produce better results for students.
■ Teachers are viewed as leaders: their
primary job is to engage students in
significant activity that results in learning.
■ One of the most critical jobs of the
superintendent is to develop a vision of the
future and to initiate action toward that vision.
