The purpose of creating a vision and mission statement is to help promote the best imaginable environment for teaching and learning. Conzemius & O’Neill (2014) state, “The vision is the best possible future that can be achieved when we focus on our most valued priorities and behave in ways that are consistent with our core beliefs”(pg.240). By promoting a common goal attained by all stakeholders involved, the work and learning will becoming more meaningful and achievable. Furthermore, a solid vision is only part of what it takes to support a learning organization. Stakeholders must also develop a mission statement in which a purpose is stated on why the group exist and how to work together in order to attain the vision. According to Conzemius & O’Neil (2014), “A clear statement of purpose that teams develop collaboratively will create cohesiveness, commitment, and understanding. The mission gives meaning to our work” (p. 246). When creating the vision and mission for a learning organization, it needs to convey important goals in an unforgettable way for maximum acceptance from all stakeholders involved.

The ways in which the aims of this mission are going to be achieved will be specifically outlined in the vision statement provided. The importance of hitting our mark is paramount, for our children are our future, and making sure that they are successful, competitive citizens should be our highest concern.  Sometimes this process can be more challenging when put into practice.

Organizations and leaders are more successful when they have clearly outlined goals and objectives. This has been a very large part of the current success of the charter school. As a board we have been able to define and include in the charter application what the goals and objectives for the school are. This has created a trust in the school and families are signing their students up in record numbers even before the school is built. (Mahdinezhad, Bin Suandi, Daud bin Silong , Omar 2013)

One of the responsibilities of schools is to have policies and procedures to assist the teachers and staff in performing their daily roles. A primary focus is to ensure that students are provided a safe and quality education. The purpose of this paper is to prepare an Operationalized Policy Statement document. The document will include a written policy statement sourced from the Public Schools of Robeson County. Second, it will include one long- term goal and one short- term goal that specifies results to enact the policy statement. Third, a statement of objective will be included for both long- term and short- term goals. Next, include a strategy for achieving each objective. Fifth, provide a tactic that will be used to implement each strategy. Finally, include a conclusion of observations regarding the differences in the steps and the possible consequences that might result if one or more of the steps are left out.

Peer mentoring showed success in a few areas, two areas are highlighted. First area was enrollment and participation. Over one hundred and fifty students participated. Many of the mentees identify wanting to be a mentor themselves, and to date twelve youth have made the transition (11.5 %.). (Crooks, Chiodo, & Thomas, 2010) The second area is the pride that the students carry while being in the program.

Schools are complex organizations that are always changing due to many factors. School improvement leaders are challenged, at best, to introduce and support change efforts within organizations that experience ongoing, dynamic external and internal change forces, most of which may be hidden and unexpected (Gurley, 2015, pg.221). Since schools are in a constant state of change from internal and external factors, the leadership should be as motivated and focused on values, visions, and mission statements. A clear understanding of mission statement has to be shared by all leadership to work together to achieve a common goal. With a lack of a clear, concise, and

Before the program started, the students satisfactory rate within their school experience provided the data of the highest level = 0 = 0% and the lowest level = 70 = 31%.

With the schedule and meeting time of the group determined, project goals need to be established. Based on the results from the assessment it was determined that the school lacks ‘Shared Values and Visions’, so it was necessary to focus the goals and objectives of the plan around building awareness of ‘Shared Values and Visions’. The first goal established for the plan included; establishing strategies for the leaders and teachers to communicate and sustain the vision. This goal was established because, the results revealed that leaders and teachers do not talk about the school vision. For example, our new teachers are not familiar with the vision because it is not openly discussed around the campus. The second goal consists of; developing strategies that ensure that the schools existing plans and practices are aligned with the vision statement. This goal was established, because the results revealed that current school practices do not reflect the vision. For example, the school vision, ‘I can, you can, we can together’ is not mirrored in our current programs and do not reflect teamwork or unity. The third goal entails; developing a guideline that leaders can use to ensure that decisions are made with the school vision in mind. For example, leaders have no regard for the vision while implementing new programs in the school, programs should be directly connected to the
