Strategic Plan

Dear BPS Community,

The 2022-2027 strategic plan represents 11 months of work by nearly 250 students, parents/guardians, teachers and support staff, district leaders, city officials and community partners. Our strategic planning process began in April 2021 with an analysis of the district. The work continued during the 2021-2022 school year with the creation of planning teams that were tasked with envisioning the future of our district. Planning team members received feedback from nearly 1,000 other community members.

We are fortunate to live in a city full of people who want to be actively engaged in building a better school district for future generations of Brockton students. I am deeply grateful to every member of our community who volunteered their time to this effort.

I’d also like to thank our partners at Planning for Success and the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) for supporting this work and for providing the community-led model that served as the foundation of our strategic planning process.

This plan is chapter one in what I know will be our district’s success story. Let’s get to work!

Michael P. Thomas

Superintendent of Schools
