During CCISD's Board of Trustees meeting on Monday, Feb. 10, a dozen underperforming schools were approved improvement plans based on Closing the Gaps Domain data from the Texas Education Agency.
This data measures gaps between students of different ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds.
The schools that were selected for the improvement plans include:
- Shaw Elementary
- Yeager Elementary
- Driscoll Middle
- Martin Middle
- Cunningham Middle at South Park
- Grant Middle, Hamlin Middle
- HAAS Middle
- Browne Middle
- Oak Park Elementary
- Travis Elementary
- Zavala Elementary
The Targeted Improvement Plan (TIP) is what CCISD will use to better these schools. They will use money from the Education Stabilization Fund (ESF), an investment of over $276 billion into state and institutional COVID-19 recovery and rebuilding efforts, managed by the U.S. Department of Education to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the coronavirus impacts on education for our nation’s students.
This comes after recent studies showing students are still affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
