Overarching Priority

The Lake George Board of Education priority, as we navigate through this school year during a global pandemic, is to operate as an effective governing body to meet the needs of the whole child and the adults in service to them.

Goal 1

We commit to supporting flexible district resource allocation, overseeing the implementation of sound and relevant policies, and monitoring the impact of strategies used to meet identified needs through ongoing board development, committee work, and attention to regularly scheduled reports at monthly BOE meetings including:

Administrative Updates - monthly

Board Committees - monthly

SPARC - October

Student Services - November

Board Retreats - Fall and Winter

Board Self Evaluation - Early Spring

Goal 2

In the wake of the pandemic and in the context of declining enrollment, we support the creation of a three year plan that is responsive to next generation educational needs and is fiscally balanced.

The administrative plan will include, but is not limited to, a synthesis of :

● Identification of staffing needs

● Audit of administrative costs (e.g.contracts, subscriptions, memberships)

● Facility management opportunities (e.g energy conservation, community partnerships)

Goal 3

We will foster unity of the Lake George school community by promoting our Mission, Vision and Values, supporting a district wide communication plan, approving and implementing our shared decision making plan, communicating solidarity of purpose, and developing a culture and climate committee.
