Strategic Planning/Middle States

Eastern Suffolk BOCES became the first intermediate educational agency to be accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. The accreditation represents our organization's commitment to Strategic Planning and providing services that meet rigorous external standards. We are proud of this accomplishment and are willing to help other organizations grow and improve through this accreditation process.

Since 1998, the development and implementation of the Eastern Suffolk BOCES Strategic Plan has been a top priority of the organization.  Despite the complexity of the process, the Strategic Plan is easy to understand.  The current plan is based on our vision for the 2017-2024 period.  The plan, which provides a road map for the agency’s future, is comprised of four major components:

  • MISSION STATEMENT
  • AGENCY BELIEFS
  • AGENCY GOALS
  • STRATEGIC ACTION PLANS

It is important to recognize that the plan is developed within parameters established by the ESBOCES Board, staff, parents, community members, representatives of our component school districts, local business owners, and government officials are all represented in the planning process. 

Eastern Suffolk BOCES Middle States Accreditation is based upon an evaluation of the plan by an independent assessment team.  We retain accreditation by achieving the goals set forth in the plan and setting new long-range plans every seven years, with updates annually.
