The leader of the Clinton School district has laid out the goals he would like to set for the upcoming five years in the Clinton district.

After meeting with the community and his staff, Superintendent Curt Nettles says he has taken things he heard from all those people and turned it into a rough draft of sorts, for their strategic plan. He says the plan starts with academic opportunities for their students.

A focus on teachers will be a big aspect to the plan for Nettles. He wants to focus on professional development for their staff but also to focus on a positive and healthy environment.

Part of the plan will include what happens in the event the Clinton Nuclear Power Plant were to close down. Nettles hopes to put together what that would look like for Clinton Schools. He says the hope is the power plant can remain viable and an integral part of the community.

Facilities will be one of the four pillars of the plan. According to Nettles, they'll evaluate everything from contingencies for their current facilities to their sports complex.

According to Nettles, his next goal in the planning process is to provide more evaluation and details about the goals he's set. He hopes to have the plan finalized at the February board meeting.
