Building on the Past Successes and Innovating for the Future

The mission of Stamford Public Schools (SPS) is to provide an education that cultivates productive habits of mind, body and heart in every student.

Key Areas for Growth

Academics, Attendance, Healthy Lifestyle Choices, Social Emotional Learning, and Service Learning.

Since launching our 2022-27 strategic plan, we have built on a strong foundation and expanded our scope of focus beyond academics. Since the inception of our 5 pillar approach in 2017, we have successfully shifted our strategy to improve student learning in all dimensions of mind, body and heart. Our successes are the result of significant collaboration among our community, staff, students and families. 

Annually, we review the SPS Strategic Plan with the greater Stamford community, including teachers, administrators, and support staff, and parent groups, community groups, and elected officials. Throughout, we review the strategic goals adopted for each school year, and assess the impact that outside forces and the ever changing landscape has on our plan implementation.  

Over the years we have learned through our collective experience that we have made great strides in recent years, and much of our plan remains on target.  We also recognize that there are always more areas of opportunity to grow and improve.  

We are thrilled to share insight into the SPS District Strategic Plan.   Our approach is  attainable through collaborative planning, realistic targets and thoughtful budgeting.  I am proud of how our community has come together to successfully implement many aspects of our plan, and look forward to Building on the Past Successes and Innovating for the Future!
