2020 Fast Approaching

I was a bit overwhelmed with all information contained in the Long-Range Plan, but I was also intrigued. At a first glance, I thought ‘this will be a lot to accomplish in the given time frame’ and wonder ‘why the sudden push.’ As I continued to read and saw how the United States is comparing to the other countries around the world I completely understood the need for change and reason the change must be immediate. I had heard this information before but it was very useful to see the ‘numbers’ that lie behind this information. I also learned some great information that will be useful when I am in a leadership role. Understanding the phases Texas has set forth will help me develop and campus and staff that is prepared to successfully prepare our students for the 21st century. I found it very interesting that by next year, there are processes that will have taken place. I feel that our campus is on the right track to meeting all the goals that have been set forth. I would love to have the opportunity to sit down with my campus administration and reflect to see exactly where we are in regard to Phase 1.
