We're excited to share an update on our USD 204 Strategic Plan progress!

The USD 204 five year Strategic Plan includes 54 initiatives designed to support students, staff, families, and our community! Guided by the expertise of the Kansas Association of School Boards (KASB), the Board of Education, eight students, and 20+ staff and community members worked together to identify priorities, gather input through surveys and committee meetings, and develop focused action plans.

This collaborative approach ensured the voices of students, families, staff, and the broader community were heard and reflected in the district’s goals. The process culminated in early 2026 with Board approval of the new plan. Find our Strategic Plan and progress dashboard on our website!

This school year, 28 initiatives are scheduled for implementation, and we're already making strong progress:

✅ 4 initiatives completed
⬛ 17 initiatives in progress
⬛ 7 initiatives scheduled to begin later this year

Q1 featured 22 active initiatives across all five strategic priorities:
🧡 Quality Instruction & Engagement
🖤 Safe & Supportive Learning Environment
🧡 People & Partnerships
🖤 Facilities & Infrastructure
🧡 Communications

Thank you to our students, staff, families, and community partners for helping move this important work forward. Over the next five weeks, we will highlight the progress here within each of the strategic priorities listed above, so stay tuned!

At the September 8th Board of Education meeting, Hilary Koehn from the Kansas Parents as Teachers Association and Lisa Williams from the Kansas Office of Early Childhood presented Melissa Lewis with the 2026 Parent Educator of the Year award!

Koehn said, "For more than 11 years, Melissa has been the heart of the USD 204 Parents As Teachers program as the Parent Educator. As the sole parent educator serving in this community, she has carried an incredible responsibility with consistency, compassion, and a genuine commitment to families, and it shows!

Over those years, Melissa has touched the lives of hundreds of families building relationships, one home visit at a time, and has helped parents feel confident as their first and most important teacher."

Congratulations, Melissa!
