Hi, I'm Terry Whitmore, District Administrator for the School District of Nekoosa. Thanks for taking the time to peruse our website to learn more about the services the District provides to Nekoosa and the surrounding communities.
I feel very privileged to help lead a District where the students, staff, parents, and community are working hard to prepare students to meet the needs of a changing world filled with challenges and at the same time opportunities to be "difference makers." Our community has inspiring students, outstanding educators and support staff, and a community at large that supports education. All of these attributes work together to make our schools successful.
In order to maximize its efforts, the School District of Nekoosa Board of Education uses a method of school district governance known as Policy Governance. Under Policy Governance, the School Board’s central job is to set specific goals, known as Results, and to ensure that these goals are met. Below are the "results" that the District continues to work on each and every day to help each student realize their own potential.
1. Overarching Results
Nekoosa School District develops students who excel academically, act responsibly, display good character and citizenship, and reason and solve problems rationally. We focus on preparing our students with the skills they will need in today’s global community.
2. Academic Performance and Application
All students, regardless of their race, gender, disability and/or socioeconomic status, will be literate in reading, language arts, and math. All students will be able to integrate and apply the knowledge, skills, attitudes and competencies acquired across all academic disciplines.
3. Self-Directed Thinkers
All students are creative, self-directed thinkers prepared for and able to adapt to a changing world.
4. Collaborative and Responsible Citizens
All students are productive and collaborative contributors in the workplace and in society.
If you have questions/comments, or would like to meet to discuss ideas you might have toward meeting the above "results" goals, please contact me at 715-886-8000.
