Strategic Planning Community Survey
The West Branch Local School District is completing a Strategic Plan for the purpose of defining the decisions and actions that shape the future of our school district over the next several years.  The planning process will include targeted and prioritized action steps to move the district forward.  One of the most important components to making this a successful effort is gathering community input while the plan is being developed.

The Strategic Plan will focus on the following areas:   Vision, Continuous Improvement and Focus of District Work, Student Achievement, Finance and Assets, Human and Educational Resources, Technology, Facilities Safety and Transportation, Communication & Community Engagement.

During the process, information will be posted and updated on the district's website at http://www.westbranch.k12.oh.us/.  The updates will be listed under "District News" on the main page of the website.

This short survey will assist in providing the community's thoughts on public education in our school district.  This information will be provided to the Strategic Planning Committee as they work to develop a plan for the West Branch Local School District.  Thank you for sharing your thoughts and helping the Warrior Nation!
