CVES 2018‐2021 Strategic Plan
CVES School Community,

As we move forward through the 2018‐19 school year, CVES continues to embrace our
Strategic Plan. We are approaching the Plan with renewed vigor, steadfast commitment
and enthusiasm. As part of our thoughtful consideration and update process, we utilized
the results of the April 2018 annual employee survey to help sharpen our focus and
support our plan updates.

We are pleased to share our CVES 2018‐21 Strategic Plan which was updated in September
2018 by the District Planning Team (DPT) and divisional teams, working with Sean Brady of
Prism Decision Systems. It was an exemplary effort that has yielded solid results that will
shape our planning and work throughout the coming year.

CVES thanks all DPT and divisional team members for their committee work, and indeed all
members of the CVES family for their daily work and commitment to our Strategic Plan and
its ongoing implementation. This is an integral and indispensable part of CVES’ educational
environment that assists us to build upon the excellence of our programs and employees as
we prepare our students for future endeavors.

Dr. Mark C. Davey, CVES District Superintendent/CEO
