How DVUSD developed the 2013-2018 Strategic Plan Gathered data and received feedback from multiple stakeholder groups Parents Students Community members Business partners Post-Secondary Institutions Employees Student graduates Our last Strategic Plan was created in 2013 and helped us align and focus our efforts for the last five years. We gathered feedback from stakeholder groups and analyzed data to help us pick our priority areas. From all of this, we were able to create a mission, vision, core values, and a finalized strategic plan, containing Priority Areas, Components, and Objectives. Vision Mission Core Values
