    • Curriculum - BPCS is prioritizing the development of K-12 Unit plans to be shared network-wide, with more rigorous student performance expectations.
    • Operations - We're devoting time and resources to streamlining and improving Operations, so that we maximize the benefits of being a network of schools and make it easier for our teachers to concentrate on what matters most: classroom time.
    • Diversity - An ongoing initiative and something that BPCS will always focus on is creating a more inclusive adult community.
    • Data - All divisions are strengthening their use of evidence to make better, more informed decisions that create a positive and enriching learning environment for our students.
    • Growth - We are focused on bringing our school integration model to new communities in Brooklyn and to regions outside of NYC. We're also in the process of enlarging our high school and starting to sketch out a plan for establishing a new elementary school in the next few years.
