The 2018-2023 Strategic Plan for Brandon Valley School District #49-2 focused on five key areas. These included providing relevant and rigorous academics for student achievement, supporting highly effective staff through development, creating safe and supportive learning environments, practicing effective fiscal responsibility, and strengthening engagement with parents and the community.

The board meeting agenda covered financial items including bills, claims, and monthly cash flow statements. General business included administrative and building reports, discussion and adoption of board policies, and approval of several agreements such as a real estate letter of intent, a Medicaid administration agreement, and an elementary school construction project agreement. Additionally, the board reviewed various technology insurance fees, vendor contracts, and personnel matters involving resignations, new hires, and internal staff transfers.
