Tim Mains, newly appointed superintendent of Jamestown Public Schools.
JAMESTOWN – The new superintendent of Jamestown Public Schools has only spent one day on the job, but he’s already providing details on what his vision of the future will be. On Thursday, Tim Mains announced his entry plan, which he says places a premium on listening and learning activities – including interactions with multiple internal and external stakeholders.
In addition, the Mains says his plan calls for the review of data, processes and policies to gain a thorough understanding of the District, including its strengths and challenges, its core business of teaching and learning, its business systems, its culture and its partnerships with the community.
Mains says he wants community members to see and understand immediately what he will do to work with teachers and administrators to lead progress.
Mains identifies expected outcomes and a 30-day, 90-day, 180-day and first year timeline. Mains’ entry plan has five areas of concentration: governance, organizational capacity and alignment, teaching and learning, operations and finance and community and public relations.
In November, Mains will release his initial report to the school board and public with a follow-up report in January. In the summer of 2014, Mains will roll out the district’s strategic plan and vision for future of Jamestown Public Schools.
The “Superintendent’s Entry Plan” was posted on the school district’s website at www.jamestownpublicschools.org.
