Assignment 6
Part 1: Mission, Vision, and Core Value Statements (ELCC 1.1, 3.4, 4.1, 4.3, 5.3, 5.5)
In this first part of the assignment, you will write a 4 to 5 page analysis of the current mission, vision, and value statements at two schools within your state that have contrasting demographics. Your analysis should include a reflection on the characteristics of the mission and vision in terms of democratic values, equity, and diversity. Through the lenses of social justice, evaluate the process of creation and revision of the mission, vision, and values.
Who are included/excluded?
Who benefit from these statements?
How do the statements promote, address, or omit social justice?
Be sure to select two schools that have contrasting demographics. You may find that some schools have all mission, vision, and value statements and some may have only one of these statements, so if the schools you select does not have all three, review only the statements that are available. In addition, you may notice some of these statements are old and have never been revised, so be sure to include this information in your analysis.
Part 2: Developing a Vision In the second part of the assignment, you will develop a vision of learning based on the school’s mission statement and core values. This will include a written section with a description of the process of developing your vision of learning and a multimedia presentation. To develop the vision of learning, you should include collaborative work with your administration to determine their needs and expectations regarding student learning. You will then collaborate with at least three additional stakeholders to include a parent or family member, a faculty member, and a community representative such as a PTA member or volunteer at your selected school. Also, keep in mind the philosophy of distributed (i.e., shared) leadership by engaging all stakeholders in this task and be sure to actively engage the stakeholders in the vision development. Northouse (2013) stated “distributed leadership involves the sharing of influence by team members who step forward when situations warrant providing the leadership necessary and then stepping back to allow others to lead” (p. 289). Document your collaboration by writing a description of the process of developing your vision of learning. The final product for this task will be the vision of learning, discussion and evidence of the collaborative process, and a multi-media presentation to transfer knowledge and understanding to all stakeholders of your school regarding your vision of learning. You may use Prezi or PowerPoint for the multi-media presentation.
