Goose Creek CISD Board Of Trustees Regular Meeting
The meeting commenced with opening exercises, including a prayer and pledges led by students from Goose Creek Memorial High School, followed by performances from the Varsity Mixed Choir. Following an oversight, the board returned to citizens participation where a speaker announced an upcoming meeting for Citizens for Strong Education and requested the re-inclusion of community members on the anti-bullying committee. Key discussion focused on recognizing Grow Your Own Clinical Intern Teachers who successfully completed their internships and transitioned to full-time teaching roles within the district. A significant portion of the meeting involved a detailed update on the anti-bullying committee's structure, goals, and history since 2021, comparing district-level and campus-level committees. Data regarding bullying incidents, including cyber bullying and severe bullying, across the previous three school years and the current fall semester was presented, showing a downward trend in total incidents. Next steps discussed include administering the annual student campus and culture climate survey and conducting student roundtables based on the survey results.
