A MESSAGE FROM:

District 49

2025-2026

District 49 is located in the North Eastern region of El Paso County, encompassing portions of Colorado Springs, Falcon, and Peyton, Colorado. District schools include 21 district-operated schools and 10 authorized charter schools, which combined serve approximately 26,000 students. District 49 is proud to offer a portfolio of schools and programs that include STEM, Core Knowledge, Arts, virtual, blended, alternative education, and early college options. District 49 continues to lead the way in … offering innovative educational programs to meet the needs of every student. Our strategic plan includes a vision for our District to be the Best Choice, while our mission to Learn, Work, and Lead is carried out through six strategic priorities: 1. LAUNCH SUCCESSFUL STUDENTS - We launch successful students into careers, college, service, and leadership. Whether they join the workforce, head to college, serve our country, or start a family, we prepare D49 graduates to succeed as they serve and lead our community. 2. BUILD FIRM FOUNDATIONS - The district builds firm foundations for all learning and support. For our students, this means emphasizing foundational skills such as literacy, math, critical thinking, and creativity. For our workforce, firm foundations mean great onboarding, thorough training, and providing the right tools to do our jobs. 3. OFFER EXCEPTIONAL CHOICES - We promote educational choices in our zones, our family of schools, and all our programs so parents and students can select high-performing options to personalize learning and achievement. 4. VALUE ALL PEOPLE - We value all people by putting our values of care and respect into action through strategic initiatives that promote equity, respect diversity, and celebrate the contributions of all. 5. ENGAGE OUR COMMUNITY - We engage our community in holding the district accountable for school performance, projects, and outreach to serve students and families across the region. 6. SUSTAIN ENDURING TRUST - We sustain enduring trust through transparent practices, clear communications, and decisions that preserve the good faith of our community. Additionally, in March 2024, our school board adopted the following Strategic Objectives: ?ACADEMIC FOCUS OBJECTIVE WRITING PERFORMANCE - Improve writing instruction across all content areas and provide more opportunities for students to write with feedback. ? ACADEMIC FOCUS OBJECTIVE MIDDLE SCHOOL PERFORMANCE: - Ensure fidelity and integrity of curriculum use to improve Tier 1 instruction. Provide purposeful interventions in all academic subjects.? WORKFORCE FOCUS OBJECTIVE COMPENSATION CALIBRATION - Design new salary schedules for ESP, Pro-Tech, and Admin workforce segments. Understand drivers of benefits satisfaction. OPERATIONS FOCUS OBJECTIVE CYBERSPACE PRESENCE: Formalize frameworks and policies for managing our cyber presence. - In collaboration with district specialists and board liaisons, we are converting these objectives into action plans and projects with timelines and measurable performance targets. Subsequently, administrators will enter these objectives, along with associated action plans and projects, into our performance-tracking system for transparent and accessible monitoring, reporting, and accountability.
