SP5Helping us build the future

What is SP5?

Springfield Public Schools’ strategic plan, SP5, presents a clear vision for the future of public education in Springfield. Working in five-year increments, we rely on community surveys, focus groups and ongoing conversations with people throughout our community to develop a strategic focus for our schools and learning programs.

Because the best strategies often evolve with time and continuous public input, flexibility is key to the success of our plan. So is transparency. We are committed to maintaining an open dialogue with every strategic step we take. As a roadmap to strategic planning, everything we do is based on one or more of our three district goals:

1. Improve Student Achievement
2. Improve the Graduation Rate
3. Ensure Effective and Efficient Use of Resources

By closely listening to input, we developed a strategic vision for the future of our schools.  SP5 reflects the goals and the measurements of success of this vision for the next five years.

Our success in meeting the goals set forth in this plan will allow us to take what is already a great place to learn and make it even better for the children of Springfield.
