The goals were divided into six categories: academic performance; teachers and staff; technology; facilities; parental and community involvement; and fiscal responsibility.
For academic performance, the district aims to focus on strategies to close the achievement gap for at-risk, limited English speakers, special education and economically disadvantaged students, according to agenda documents. There will also be an emphasis on career and technology education as the district looks to help students achieve post-secondary education success, agenda documents read.
For teachers and staff, AISD will focus on offering competitive salary schedules and benefits, and emphasize a quality environment for teaching and learning, according to agenda documents.
Another goal for the district is to seek community input and involvement on new facilities or significant renovations if they are proposed by AISD in the future, according to agenda documents.
