Continuous Strategic Improvement

The Owasso Public School District is committed to providing a safe environment that equips, educates, and empowers Owasso students on their journey toward outstanding character and success.

The Owasso Public Schools’ 2022-2028 Strategic Plan is recognized as a blueprint of district transformation and change. Throughout the 2022-2023 school year, the district engaged in a transparent process to develop a five-year comprehensive plan that is stakeholder and data-driven. The plan emphasizes Ram Achievement and enrichment by engaging in initiatives that will advance student academic performance and elevate college, career, and life readiness for all students. This will be accomplished by a commitment to continuing on the journey to implement high-functioning Professional Learning Communities, investigating full-day pre-kindergarten programs, and enhancing the work with students in the development of Individual Career Academic Plans (ICAP) prior to graduation.

Important to the success of students is the recruitment, retention, and development of the Ram Team personnel. The plan includes a recruitment plan, a retention plan, a professional development plan, and a support plan for employees. Resources are necessary to maximize the potential of an organization. The importance of different types of Ram Resources is acknowledged in the plan by strengthening student programs and improving and maintaining district infrastructure through the development of a facilities improvement plan, a technology plan, and a transportation improvement plan.

Finally, the plan addresses the Ram Community Culture. Positive and healthy school cultures are the foundations of high-quality learning environments and create the conditions for effective teaching and learning to occur. The goal to improve stakeholder satisfaction will be accomplished through initiatives addressing a safe and nurturing environment and increasing opportunities for shared leadership.

This plan is the framework through which the district supports the development of each child to his/her potential. It will serve as the foundation for each school in the district to develop annual plans that are designed to support the implementation of the district’s five-year strategic plan. The initiatives and action steps will be continually monitored, and the Board of Education will be regularly updated as to the progress of the plan.

This strategic plan sets the expectation that each student, regardless of ethnicity, language, disability, or income level, can achieve high standards of learning. Strategies are included to ensure students will meet and/or exceed standards, graduate on time, and be college/career ready.
