By Kevin Hendricks, The Paper. — Missed last week’s Horizon 2040 kickoff? Rio Rancho Public Schools serves up a second helping tonight.
The district hosts the second of four community conversations on its next strategic plan Thursday, Nov. 5, from 6-7 p.m. at Rio Rancho High School. Parents, students, staff and community members can share what’s working in RRPS schools and where the district should improve, according to the district.
Each hourlong session opens with an overview of the planning process. Attendees then break into small groups led by district facilitators before pitching ideas to the full room. The district plans to offer Spanish interpretation at every meeting.
Horizon 2040 will guide the district from 2027 to 2032 while looking ahead to the Class of 2040, today’s 4-year-olds. District leaders told the school board in September they want every RRPS school ranked in the top 25% statewide by 2030.
Two more chances remain after tonight: an in-person meeting next week at Maggie Cordova Elementary and a virtual session Nov. 19. Residents can also weigh in anytime through the district’s online survey.
