PROVIDE INPUT – Collier County Public Schools is launching “Planning the Pathway” as we begin the process of developing a new five-year strategic plan that will outline the district’s major goals for school years 2024-25 through 2028-29. Planning the Pathway allows YOU to provide direct input to the process.

We are committed to authentic engagement so that our strategic plan more closely aligns with the values of parents, staff, students, and community. Over the next four months, we will pose a series of questions one at a time.
