The Bonsall USD

Framework for the Future

Overview

Bonsall Unified School District is committed to empower all students to achieve their maximum learning potential


To this end, a diverse group of individuals has come together to help define what's possible for students, families, staff, and our community. We are excited to share that this group kicked off designing the Bonsall Unified School District Framework for the Future on September 27, 2022, and will continue to work together through the 2022-2023 school year. 

You can follow the journey and stay "in the know" through this website and be assured that our groups' work will:



The Framework for the Future will provide a north star that defines the learner outcomes, learning experiences and enabling conditions to inform decision-making and prioritization. 


Ultimately, it will help us to achieve our BUSD mission.

Our Framework for the Future will be designed in 3 phases using the human-centered Design Thinking protocol to support our efforts in designing for BUSD learners.

Phase 1 consists of listening to those who are at the center of the BUSD school system: the students. 

Using the “Continue-Start-Stopprotocol, students were guided through a discovery conversation allowing them to reflect on their personal academic experiences and then work collaboratively to summarize their collective academic experiences and journey.

Phase 2 is defining whole-learner outcomes. This is called the "Learner Profile". Find the draft of the Bonsall Learner Profile here.

Why do we need a learner profile? 

A learner profile supports the following shifts to set systems up such that ALL students can reach their full potential.

Phase 3 is defining the learning experiences that will support learners in achieving the desired outcomes. This is called the "Learning Model". Find the draft of the Bonsall Learning Model here. 


Why do we need a learning model

The Learning Model establishes the learning experiences to achieve your whole-child outcomes. It provides a catalyst to align systems, processes, and structures necessary to support students in developing and demonstrating the outcomes. Ultimately, it’s the framework for pedagogical change and provides the fence posts for what teaching and learning should look like.
