Will You Help Shape SON’s Vision and Priorities?
Input Needed for SON’s New Strategic Plan: Over the summer, JHSON began our Strategic Planning Process for the next 5 years (2024-2029). We invite you to review the proposed vision and priority statements and provide feedback by September 18.
Faculty, staff, and student representatives worked with the Dean’s Office in an iterative process to create draft vision and priority statements that will set the foundation for our strategic goals and strategies in the years ahead. We are sharing these drafts with our school community to inform our future direction with your individual wisdom and insights. We especially want to ensure that our vision and priorities resonate with you, our students.
Thank you, in advance, for your participation! Your contributions will help us strive for a truly inclusive and visionary future.
