- Community
Consolidated School District 15 believes that continuous improvement
in the quality of education for students depends on the capacity
of all people in the educational community to share in the decision-making
process. The purpose of shared decision making is to enable people
to make good decisions that will address the existing and emerging
needs of students and improve their levels of achievement. Shared
decision making thus provides administrators, teachers, support
staff, students, parents, and community members greater involvement
in the educational process. This shared responsibility for making
decisions causes more ownership and commitment which produces
higher quality decisions. Shared decision making implies that
everyone has the opportunity to improve the life of District
15 students and help to develop the District's mission of A TRUE
LEARNING COMMUNITY. The District-developed shared decision making
manual will serve as a guide for the implementation and support
of shared decision making in the District.
