2018 - 2019 Ratings

Throughout the 2018-2019 year, a group of community stakeholders worked collaboratively to fully re-imagine the district’s Community Based Accountability System (CBAS). A series of meetings were held throughout the fall and spring with parents, teachers, campus administrators and district administrators to deepen our understanding of the CBAS framework as developed with the Texas Public Accountability Consortium (TPAC). 

As a result of this work, the district developed 32 key questions framed around seven pillars as reflected below.
