Approved Organization and Scope of Florida BOE’s Strategic Plan Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives In Ocala, the Board approved a focused but flexible outline for its strategic plan and began experimenting with the composition of strategic imperatives. Approved Organization and Scope of Florida BOE’s Strategic Plan Component/ Sub-Component(s) Amount Of Detail Proposed Number To Be Included In Strategic Plan Guiding Principles* Minimal 5 Core Values Minimal 8 Mission* Minimal 1 Goals* Minimal 4 Strategic Imperatives Moderate to Minimal 4 to 7 Objectives Substantial to Moderate 16 to 30 Projects Substantial 30 to 60 *Provided by the Florida State Legislature. © Accenture 2001 Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3

Hierarchy of Selected Strategic Plan Components Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives BOE’s strategic imperatives are intended to elaborate on the goals for Florida’s education system established by law, but not to be detailed prescriptions for management. Hierarchy of Selected Strategic Plan Components Definition Created And Monitored By: 40,000 Feet Goal A measurable result that the public education system is required to achieve as part of carrying out its mission Florida State Legislature and Governor Bush Strategic Imperative A top-priority initiative to be completed within two to five years as a key part of achieving one of the education system’s strategic goals Florida Board of Education 30,000 Feet Objective A major milestone that the K-20 education system’s management must pass on the way to implementing a strategic imperative Secretary and Commissioner of Education (Under the Aegis of Florida Board of Education) 10,000 Feet Project A discrete, budgeted management effort undertaken to attain one or more defined objectives Secretary and Commissioner of Education (Under the Aegis of Florida Board of Education) Ground Level © Accenture 2001 Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3

Strategic Imperative #1 Strategic Imperative #2 Unspecified Timeframe Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives In developing its strategic imperatives, it will be important for the Board to focus on what needs to be achieved and refrain from specifying how to achieve it. What To Achieve What To Give Priority Objective #1 Objective #2 Project How Far To Go How To Do It CONCEPTUAL Strategic Imperative #1 Strategic Goal Strategic Imperative #2 © Accenture 2001 Unspecified Timeframe 2 to 5 Year Timeframe 1 to 2 Year Timeframe Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3 © Accenture 2001

Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives Each strategic imperative should be a major initiative (or sub-goal) supporting a strategic goal that will take two to five years to accomplish.

Strategic Imperatives Management Objectives And Projects Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives Each strategic imperative should indicate a BOE priority vis-à-vis achieving one or more strategic goals and provide a high-level definition of success.

Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives While draft imperatives proposed by BOE members have good focus, many indicate potential management objectives and projects, which goes too far at this time. Draft Strategic Imperatives Proposed in Support of the Goal of “Highest Student Achievement” Reduce K-12 Dropout Rate Create a Highly Skilled Human Resource Pool Close the Achievement Gap Between Inner-City Students and All Others Increase Graduation Rate for High School and University (Particularly Among Minorities) Create Teaching as a Real Profession (“Get Teaching Right, Student Achievement Will Follow”) Increase Graduation Rate by 100% in 5 Years Reduce Teacher Turnover / Increase Teacher Retention by 100% in 5 Years Reduce Class Size (Student / Instructor Ratio) Improve College Readiness Rate Expand Use of Technology in Teaching, Learning, and Administrative Processes Develop Funding Formulas Aligned to Need and Values Increase Student Achievement on Standardized Tests Increase High School Graduates Enrolling in Higher Education by 100% Over Next 5 Years © Accenture 2001 Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3

Unspecified Timeframe Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives We recommend BOE’s strategic imperatives focus on outcomes that are highly likely to help cause attainment of a strategic goal, not just result from such attainment. ILLUSTRATIVE What To Achieve What To Give Priority How Far To Go How To Do It Highest Student Achievement Create Teaching as a Real Profession Reduce Teacher Turnover / Increase Teacher Retention by 100% in 5 Years Reduce K-12 Dropout Rate Increase Graduation Rate for High School and University (Particularly Among Minorities) Increase Graduation Rate by 100% in 5 Years Improve College Readiness Rate Reduce Class Size (Student / Instructor Ratio) Develop Funding Formulas Aligned to Need and Values Close the Achievement Gap Between Inner-City Students and All Others Expand Use of Technology in Teaching, Learning, and Administrative Processes Increase Student Achievement on Standardized Tests Increase High School Graduates Enrolling in Higher Education by 100% Over Next 5 Years Create a Highly Skilled Human Resource Pool Unspecified Timeframe 2 to 5 Year Timeframe 1 to 2 Year Timeframe © Accenture 2001 Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3 © Accenture 2001

Working Student Achievement Model Proposed Form of Strategic Imperatives Identification of such imperatives will require research-based causal models for each strategic goal, which we are developing for next month’s BOE workshop. Working Student Achievement Model CONCEPTUAL Recruitment and Retention of Enough Competent Instructors Certification and Ongoing Training of Instructors Mastery of Basic Skills Required at Start of Each Educational Level Early Identification and Remediation of Major Obstacles to Student Learning High-Quality Instruction Readiness to Learn High Student Achievement For Instructors For Students + Critical Success Factors Desired Outcomes © Accenture 2001 Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3 © Accenture 2001 13

Strategic Goals of Florida’s K-20 Education System Next Steps Given the breadth and diverse needs of the education system’s customer population, the Governor and Legislature have called for a focus on four strategic goals. Strategic Goals of Florida’s K-20 Education System Progress To Be Measured By: Highest Student Achievement Student FCAT performance and annual learning gains Number and percentage of schools that improve at least one school performance grade designation or maintain a school performance grade designation of "A" pursuant to s. 229.57 Graduation or completion rates at all learning levels Seamless Articulation and Maximum Access Percentage of students who demonstrate readiness for the educational level they are entering, from kindergarten through postsecondary education and into the workforce Number and percentage of students needing remediation Percentage of Floridians who complete associate, baccalaureate, professional, and postgraduate degrees Number and percentage of credits that articulate Extent to which each set of exit-point requirements matches the next set of entrance-point requirements Skilled Workforce and Economic Development Number and percentage of graduates employed in their areas of preparation Percentage of Floridians with high school diplomas and postsecondary education credentials Percentage of business and community members who find Florida's graduates possess the skills they need Quality, Efficient Services Cost per completer or graduate Average cost per non-completer at each educational level Cost disparity across institutions offering the same degrees Percentage of education customers at each educational level who are satisfied with the education provided Source: SB 1162, Section 9 © Accenture 2001 Florida Board of Education/ Strategic Planning Workshop 3
