¼öƬapp Strategic Plan 2020–25
Strategic planning is one of the tools ¼öƬapp uses to provide the district with focus and direction. It consists of the following elements:
Strategic Plan Framework
The AISD Board of Trustees approved the framework for the 2020-25 strategic plan which includes our mission, vision, values and priorities. This provides the high-level strategic direction and is the responsibility of the Board of Trustees.
Goals and Scorecard
The district’s scorecard provides a tool to assess progress. It includes perfect indicators, targets and actual perfect data. The scorecard is created collaboratively between the board and the Superintendent. The board approved a retooled scorecard for use during Spring 2024 during the December 2023 Regular Voting Meeting.
- 2025-2029 District Scorecard (Targets under development)
- 2025-2029 Scorecard Monitoring Calendar
- Spring 2024 Retooled Scorecard
- Spring 2024 Scorecard Monitoring Calendar
- Previous 2021-26 Scorecard (updated as of 9/14/2023)
Strategies and Actions
The Superintendent and Administration identify that will guide its work to make progress against the priorities and scorecard indicators. The Administration identifies action steps and conducts ongoing progress monitoring throughout the year.
Equity Action Plan
The 2023 ¼öƬapp Equity Action Plan served as a source document for both the district's strategic plan 2020-25 and the Long Range Plan, which informed the other districtwide planning initiatives. Since the Equity Action Plan was utilized as a source document, the plan has since been archived.
Regulatory Appendices
Texas Education Code requires that every school district in the state have a District Improvement Plan, and ¼öƬapp’s policy AE (Local) requires the district to have a strategic plan. In order not to have two plans that accomplish the same purpose, ¼öƬapp has chosen to have a strategic plan that also satisfies state DIP requirements. The purpose of the appendices is to provide various other components required for DIPs.
The appendices are the responsibility of the superintendent. They include:
- Title I Equity Plan
- State Compensatory Education Funding
- Results Driven Accountability
- Priority for Service Action Plan for Migrant Students
- Pregnancy Related Services
- District Policy on Freedom from Harassment
