Shared Decision Making Team

Partnership improves student achievement and strengthens community support

Shared decision making is a process designed to involve individuals responsible for implementing decisions in actually making those decisions. The focus of this process at HFM BOCES is on education. Its purpose is to improve education in a framework of trust and collaboration among staff, parents, students, and the community. The main goal is to improve student achievement. A secondary goal is to strengthen community support for the BOCES by fostering greater public involvement in and “ownership” of the educational process.

Shared decision making is a partnership. Administrators, teachers and other staff members, students, parents, and community members are involved in significant decisions about the education of children. The process provides for collaboration in decision making and for shared responsibility for educational improvements.
