Escondido Union School District is committed to actualizing the unlimited potential of every learner. A diverse group of education partners 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 Escondido Framework for the Future in September 2021 and will continue to work together through the 2023-2024 school year.
You can follow the journey and stay "in the know" through this website and be assured that our groups' work will:
Be outcome driven
Ensure diverse community perspectives
Include processes for meaningful participation
Be iterative, including multiple feedback loops
Push us to be future/forward thinking
Anchor on the student experiences we aspire to achieve
Drive impact and decision making
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.

A learner profile supports the following shifts to set systems up such that ALL students can reach their full potential.
A learner profile is
A visual representation of the essential skills and habits of mind students should have when they graduate to be successful.
Aspirational, memorable, and easily communicated to students, parents, faculty, and staff. Consider limiting to 4-8 outcomes.
Expanded outcomes for learners, what success looks like; capturing evidence of the whole child through competencies that are transferable, interdisciplinary, and relevant to the learner in the modern world.
A commitment to (re)design school in a way that ensures every student can succeed in fulfilling the profile’s vision for learners.
This is called the "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.
