upon the strengths that have been identified across the system and create a
shared picture of the "envisioned future" for Newton Public Schools
in the year 2020, when this year's kindergartners graduate! Participants
in these sessions will be invited to work creatively and collaboratively to
brainstorm what they would like to see evident as NPS' key accomplishments and
outstanding qualities at that point in time. The sessions will be very
interactive and give people a chance to be bold and vivid as they consider the
future they would like to call forward for the district and its various
stakeholders.
