This document presents a progress monitoring report for a set of Board Goals aimed at enhancing student academic outcomes and readiness. The primary goals include improving early literacy, early mathematics, 7th-grade mathematics proficiency, and college, career, and military readiness by August 2030. The report details performance metrics, identifies strengths, and outlines areas for improvement focusing on curriculum, instruction, professional development, and targeted interventions across all grade levels to accelerate student progress.

The document outlines specific goals and strategies for enhancing early literacy outcomes for students in Kindergarten through 3rd grade. Key initiatives include improving MAP English and Spanish Reading scores by June 2028, addressing challenges in vertical alignment and biliteracy program implementation, and optimizing progress monitoring and small group instruction. Strategies involve fostering vertical team collaboration, providing targeted differentiated instruction, and delivering comprehensive teacher support and coaching. The overarching vision is to significantly increase the percentage of students achieving grade-level proficiency in reading, thereby strengthening foundational literacy skills.

This document is an application seeking approval to delay the full implementation of teacher certification requirements for a District of Innovation until the 2029-2030 academic year. It outlines a transition plan from 2025-2026 to achieve compliance with House Bill 2, focusing on gradually reducing the number of uncertified teachers in foundational subjects. Key strategies include establishing partnerships with Educator Preparation Programs and providing mentorship. The plan aims to support teacher retention, maintain staffing stability, and ensure structured compliance with new state regulations.

This document provides an update on progress towards mathematics goals, focusing on early mathematics and overall mathematics achievement. Key objectives include increasing the percentage of 3rd-grade students meeting grade level or above on STAAR Math to 60% by August 2030, and 7th-grade students to 40% by August 2030. The update details specific Goal Progress Measures (GPMs) for various grade levels (Kindergarten through 6th grade) for MAP Math scores, targeting improvements by June 2028. The plan emphasizes foundational math concepts, accountability, instructional consistency, and the development of a cohesive Math Instructional Framework to enhance student learning.

This document outlines Goal 4, which is dedicated to increasing the percentage of College, Career, and Military Ready (CCMR) graduates from 68% in August 2025 to 90% by August 2030. The strategic focus includes specific performance measures (GPMs) aimed at improving TSI criteria attainment in English Language Arts and Math, increasing the number of graduates earning associate degrees, and boosting the acquisition of approved industry-based certifications. The plan identifies current successful practices and addresses areas requiring more attention, such as TSI remediation, equitable access to advanced coursework, and sustaining growth, while outlining strategies for improvement like strengthening middle school alignment, refining P-TECH programs, and establishing continuous educational pathways.
