Over the past several months, the ECESC team has been deeply engaged in a strategic planning process aimed at clarifying our organizational goals and strategies and elevating our service and impact. On behalf of our ECESC team, I am excited to share our mission statement and core values that have been developed through this collaborative process.
Mission:
At ECESC, we believe that students' strengths and interests serve as a blueprint for shaping futures of success and impact. Our mission is to empower East Central Indiana educators, schools, and communities through innovative educational and workforce solutions that support career-connected learning, prepare students for post-secondary success, and drive educational and economic growth.
Core Values:
Service: We are committed to delivering exceptional service by seeking to understand the needs of our schools and communities deeply and to respond with meaningful solutions that drive successful outcomes for the students, schools, and communities we serve.
Support: We provide steadfast support by fostering strong relationships and working to empower and celebrate schools and communities with the respect and commitment they deserve.
Collaboration: We believe in and model the power of partnerships and robust teamwork by working together with schools, communities, and stakeholders to create shared success and collective impact. Through continuous and collaborative learning, we co-create solutions, embracing flexibility and creativity to impact educational, workforce, and community outcomes.
Joy: We believe that learning and growth are amplified in the presence of joy, and we seek to bring positive energy, gratitude, and personal connection into all interactions.
Stewardship: We honor the trust placed in us by acting with integrity and strategic discernment, embracing initiatives and practices that foster sustainability and ensure a lasting impact on our schools and communities for generations to come.
We will strive to keep this mission and these values at the forefront of our actions and decisions. We are deeply optimistic about the future of East Central Indiana, and we thank you for being a part of this shared journey with us! I also want to thank Mapt Solutions for selecting ECESC as the recipient of their Transformation Challenge grant and serving as our strategic planning partners throughout this process. Their assistance and support were invaluable in sharpening our organizational focus and strategies!
Looking ahead, the ECESC team is planning exciting new opportunities for engagement and collaboration for the 2025-26 school year. These plans will be fine-tuned through a district needs assessment, which will be shared with member districts later this month. This step ensures that our engagement opportunities are aligned with your needs and are poised to deliver meaningful service and support. This feedback and engagement will be invaluable as we focus on building innovative and impactful programming.
Thank you for your continued support and dedication to advancing education across East Central Indiana.
Pat Haney
Executive Director
