1. How does this tactic relate to the mission? The GCISD misson is to "promote good citizenship and prepare, motivate and encourage each student to reach his or her full potential within a safe, caring, cooperative environment by providing an effective and enduring education." Without the effective means of communication of all stakeholders, the mission will never be reached. The needs of our students are constantly changing/evolving requiring student preparation to be relevant and cutting edge. Without the prespectives of all stakeholders the district runs the risk of status quo education. A team effort prepares our students to achieve their full potential and designs for the future, not limited to the present.

2. How does this strategy relate to the objectives? The communication strategy has direct impact on all four objectives.

3. How does this strategy relate to other strategies in the Strategic Plan? The communication strategy overlaps with all strategies requiring collaboration of all stakeholders.
