The Spring-Ford Area School District Comprehensive Plan (formerly known as Strategic Plan) serves as a roadmap to ensure alignment of district expenditures with the instructional goals that are embraced by our school district and mandated by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Earlier this year, the District developed an internal and external stakeholder survey to help determine district challenges and strengths, skills and attitudes necessary for Spring-Ford graduates and fiscal priorities for the next five years. District strengths, challenges, priorities were established by holding focus groups that included district administration, faculty, school board members, parents and community members.
