Recently, I took part in the first strategic planning meeting at school. I didnt know what strategic planning meant when I was invited. So I set about trying to find out what it was. Later, I learnt it meant setting short and long term goals.

The meeting took place in Ms Gallups room on Tuesday after school. I really didnt know what to expect. I was very nervous, but I felt very lucky to have been included. I really wanted to do the best I could.

The desks in the room were laid out into two circles so that the upper school and lower school could be divided. There were fifteen students in the room. We were directed to discuss how to advance the school, what wed like to be taught, and what we thought could be improved upon. I felt this was a very important responsibility(责任) as I was representing(代表) the fourth grade. So I tried to do the best I could.

There were a lot of suggestions on how to improve our school. One student felt that the uniform sweater policy was really important and another student felt that building a paintable field would help improve the school greatly. I suggested that we should have Chinese classes because China is the most highly populated place on Earth with a growing industrial power. We should learn how to communicate with the Chinese.

We discussed a lot and sometimes the discussion became heated, but they were interesting. I think it is amazing that the teacher asked the students about their opinions and gave us a voice. It is exciting if they adopt(采纳)any of our suggestions.
