NEWPORT NEWS — George Parker, superintendent of Newport News Public Schools, recently released his Entry Plan.
The plan will help chart the first 100 days of service while also providing accountability to the School Board and community.
The objectives of his plan will assist him in establishing an understanding of the traditions, relationships and operations of Newport News public schools.
In addition to this, Parker’s goal is to become acquainted with the community, partners and schools while remaining focused on teaching and learning in the classrooms, according to a news release from the city.
The city said the plan was developed to assess the status of significant areas of the school division’s current strategic plan and key leverage points.
It is organized to evaluate the work of the following strategic supports that drive the school division’s strategic plan: quality curriculum, accountability systems, financial resiliency, employee expertise and community connections.
The plan will also analyze division readiness in the areas of school and student safety, and equity and opportunities.
At the conclusion of Parker’s first 100 days, he will develop a Post-Entry Report which will include an assessment of the information obtained during the entry planning process and his recommendations for moving the work of the school division’s strategic plan forward.
