Alachua County Public Schools (ACPS) is undergoing a comprehensive, community-wide initiative to develop a long-term school planning strategy that positions local public schools for future success. This initiative, titled Our Schools—Future Ready, will address several critical issues, including enrollment and school capacity, transportation, educational programs, and more. To guide the vision and decisions behind this plan, this initiative will include extensive community engagement with families, students, educators, and community members to ensure the final plan reflects the community's priorities.
This website will serve as a central community hub for the Comprehensive School Strategy Plan (CSSP) developed under this initiative. Here, you can view the schedule of engagement events, participate in online engagement opportunities, see the project's status in real time, and review draft versions of the CSSP and other important documents as they become available.

Frequently Asked Questions:
A Comprehensive School Strategy Plan (CSSP) is a long-range, community-oriented planning document that guides the district's short- and long-term strategies for school programs, student attendance boundaries, and school facilities. While these topics are traditionally addressed in the district's annual 5-Year Work Plan, unique external challenges and pressure have made it necessary to address them in a new way, using both technical data and extensive community input.
If adopted, the effects of the CSSP's recommendations will vary depending on where you are located within the district. Potential recommendations may include changes to student attendance boundaries, the location of magnet programs, and improvements in the district's transportation system.
A key part of drafting a vision-forward CSSP is collecting input from the ACPS community, including current and former students, teachers, staff, and Alachua County residents. Responses from community engagement events will form the basis for recommendations drafted in the CSSP. To share your input, you can attend any scheduled in-person engagement event, submit responses on this website, or send information directly to the team via the project email.
Following two rounds of community engagement in December and February, the final reports and recommendations from the CSSP are expected to be presented to the Board for adoption in mid-March. These materials will also include a short- and long-term implementation strategy, serving as a timeline for when these recommendations will take effect.
