SAN DIEGO–San Diego’s school superintendent, Cindy Marten, is asking San Diegans to “dream together” and help chart the course for San Diego’s schools at a series of forums, with the first one tonight in Barrio Logan.

The “Vision 20|20 Forums” will be sessions to provide input on what is working, what could be improved upon, and how will the district and community work together to accomplish the district¹s Vision 2020. The answers to these questions will help chart the course of California’s second-largest school district.

The forums are open to the public and is hosted by the representative for those areas.

“We are committed to having clear, long-term priorities based on our Vision 2020,” said Kevin Beiser, Board of Education President. “We believe that when our priorities are inspired and informed by our parents, students, employees and community members, we will have important information for long-range planning with students at the center.”

The “Vision 2020 Forums: What Kinds of Schools Do We Want” series offer parents, staff, students, and community members an opportunity to give input to the superintendent and the board members on priorities for our students and schools.

“These forums will yield a clear and collective sense of our district-wide long-term priorities,” said Superintendent Cindy Marten. “We look forward to continued stakeholder engagement beyond these forums as we work together to create quality schools in every neighborhood.”
