Holmdel School District Strategic Plan To Be Topic Of CILU Forum

HOLMDEL, NJ — A virtual forum about the Holmdel school district's five-year strategic plan will be hosted Nov. 13 at 7:30 p.m. by Citizens for Informed Land Use.

CILU will present the program via Zoom - "An Evening with Dr. Cascone, Superintendent of Holmdel Schools." You can register here.

The strategic plan for 2023-2028 is built on four focal points, each designed to enhance the overall educational experience in Holmdel, according to Superintendent J. Scott Cascone:

• Organizational Systems: Strengthening the infrastructure and operations to support educational excellence.

• Teaching and Learning: Promoting innovative and effective teaching practices that meet the evolving needs of our students.

• Culture and Climate: Fostering a safe, inclusive, and supportive learning environment that encourages growth and well-being.

• Parent/Community Engagement and Partnerships: Enhancing collaboration with parents, guardians, and the broader community to create a holistic support system for our students.

You can read more details about the plan and how it came to be developed here.

The district website has the report of the full plan here. It was developed over an eight-month period.

"This plan is a testament to our unwavering commitment to providing our students with a world-class education. It reflects the dedication of our entire school community—students, parents, staff, and board members—who have come together to create a roadmap for our future. This process and plan hold the promise of propelling us from where we are today to where we aspire to be in 2028," Cascone has said previously.

CILU is a nonpartisan group that advocates for protecting Holmdel's natural resources and promoting an open, transparent government, its website notes.
