Valley Stream 24 School District Sets Vision 2030 in Motion

The Valley Stream 24 School District Board of Education and Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Unal Karakas, recently embarked on a retreat to set priorities and plans for Vision 2030, the district’s new initiative aimed at adapting to future needs and cultivating a 21st-century learning environment for its students.

“The Valley Stream 24 School District is embarking on an exciting and important journey with Vision 2030,” said Dr. Karakas. “This vision encompasses input from our stakeholders, and we are expanding it each year. We are working diligently to shape a successful future for our students and staff, engaging them in the 21st century and prioritizing our shared successes. Our Board of Education worked incredibly hard this summer to establish priorities and ideas around Vision 2030. We extend our gratitude to Ray McNulty from the Successful Practices Network for leading such an impactful session.”

During the retreat, the Board of Education and Dr. Karakas developed strategies and plans for Vision 2030, focusing on how the district can support educators and students in the 21st century. In alignment with Vision 2030, the district is also redesigning one classroom in each school building this summer to become innovative learning hubs. The three redesigned classrooms in the district are expected to be completed in time for the start of the 2024-25 school year.
