WHY PLAN IN THE FIRST PLACE?

✓ Decide how and where to set priorities in the use of
limited human and economic resources.
✓ Decide how to accomplish not only your short-range
goals but also your medium and long-range goals.
✓ Build on the strong and successful parts of the
program. As well as to identify and improve the weak
parts.
✓ Reach an agreement in the school community about
what to do and how to do it.

WHAT A GOOD PLANNING PROCESS IS

✓ It is organized thinking that helps in deciding what
needs to be done, how it will happen, and who will do
it.
✓ It is the setting of priorities in the use of resources:
people, money, time, and materials.
✓ It is trying to anticipate the future.
✓ It is adapting and modifying steps or processes until
they work for you.
✓ It is using leadership to motivate people and
coordinate their activities.
✓ It is reflecting on what has been planned already and
how it is working.
✓ It includes the periodic recording of planning
decisions for future reference.

WHAT A GOOD PLANNING PROCESS SHOULD DO

✓ It should stimulate change and improvement.
✓ It should help you figure out what will happen and
how it should happen.
✓ It should raise awareness about what is being done
and why.
✓ It should build a trail of activities over time so you can
look at what has worked well and what has not.
✓ It should produce a blueprint, road map, or recipe to
be used.
✓ It should decrease fear about the process of change
and its result.
