The Board of Education's mission is to equitably educate the whole child so that every student graduates with the tools to reach their full potential. To succeed in their mission, the board participates in Lone Star Governance, whose intent is to provide a continuous improvement model for governing teams (Boards in collaboration with their Superintendents) that choose to intensively focus on one primary objective: improving student outcomes. Lone Star Governance is a training initiative developed by the Texas Education Agency to provide a continuous improvement model for school districts. Lone Star Governance accomplishes this through tailored execution of the five points of the Texas Framework For School Board Development: Vision, Accountability, Structure, Unity, and Advocacy. The board developed three goals and four constraints to achieve their vision and provide a framework in which this vision was to be accomplished. Throughout the 2017-2018 school year, these goals and constraints were monitored through the goal and constraint progress measures (GPMs and CPMs) at monthly board meetings. A summary of the district's performance on these measures, along with the superintendent's response when appropriate, are presented on the following pages.
