Every five years, District 7 Schools pursues a comprehensive revision of its Strategic Education Plan. The purpose of the strategic planning process is to ensure D7 meets the diverse needs of our students and helps them grow in both knowledge and skills. Our focus is on continuing a plan that reflects community expectations for student academic achievement and career - and college-readiness.

South Carolina Education Department regulations state that districts’ strategic plans “must establish priorities and prioritize efforts to focus on raising student achievement levels for all students, the prevention of academic problems, and reducing the achievement gaps identified on the annual report card.”  The regulation goes on to say that the plan “must be developed collaboratively by a broad-based group of stakeholders using a consensus process.”
