A task is an action that might be needed to accomplish a goal. Tasks are used to measure progress and should be thought of as a milestone or benchmark without which the goal cannot be met. For example, implementation of a career program might require building a specialized facility or acquiring specialized equipment. If this is not already in the district budget, it might require passing a bond issue. Passing the bond issue could be considered a task. If a district is implementing new instructional programs that require expert leadership, it might require hiring a curriculum director. Hiring the director could be considered a task. Identifying a task is optional if nothing in that category is needed.
