Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) faced the challenge of developing a strategy that would represent a consensus among all 55 stakeholders - composed of the school board, selected ACPS executive staff and community—while setting challenging goals. Plexus worked with ACPS to draft a new vision, defining the key goals, establishing strategic objectives, and developing tactics to achieve these goals. . This strategic-planning commitment provided increased camaraderie among school board members and served to establish many valuable relationships throughout the community. A survey completed to evaluate the engagement affirmed that that the strategic plan document provided ACPS with the proper foundation, direction and mandate to do what is best for all students in ACPS.
