Superintendent and principals said the district recorded a rise in incidents categorized as “physically aggressive” for the reporting period; staff said a portion were referrals for horseplay or mutual incidents that were handled on campus and recorded under the district’s definitions.

District leaders emphasized transparency in reporting and said the numbers reflect both actual incidents and a stricter application of reporting definitions. \"We're honest and we're transparent... I did see a reduction overall in mutual fighting, but I did see some showing horseplay where, you know, slap fighting with a friend that only leads to an altercation, and that's physical aggression,\" a district presenter said.

The board was updated on PBIS (positive behavior incentives) expansion to campuses and transportation; staff said drivers and transportation teams would receive tokens and implementation support and that positive referrals had already been reported. The district also described implementation of Sentinel, a school-safety platform that centralizes drills, calendars and incident tracking; staff said a district vulnerability assessment audit is scheduled for February and that the district is close to compliance with safety audit expectations.

Attendance incentives and a supportive, nonpunitive follow-up process were credited for improved year-to-date attendance levels: staff reported most campuses showing strong attendance and said more than 80% of students had 90% or better attendance this year on some campuses. Trustees asked for ongoing monitoring and follow-through through principals’ midyear meetings.

District staff said behavior-management work includes special-education behavior framework implementation and that referrals are reviewed case-by-case. The board asked to continue conversations with principals and the superintendent for regular updates as the district refines reporting, interventions and safety audits.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","1/28/25 BCISD School Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","District leaders told the Bay City ISD board that more incidents were recorded as \"physically aggressive\" this reporting period, but staff said some of the increase reflects more consistent reporting of horseplay and referrals; PBIS, Sentinel safety software and attendance incentives were rolled out across campuses.","taxTitle","BAY CITY ISD, School Districts, Texas","taxId",60793,"location","Texas","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6363254,"Bay City ISD pilots CTE pathway partnership to offer HVAC/construction training and equipment",63,3226000,3289000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32&start=3226&end=3289","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32/thumbnail_3226000.jpg","/articles/6363254/Texas/Bay-City-ISD-pilots-CTE-pathway-partnership-to-offer-HVACconstruction-training-and-equipment","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6363254-eb4346a776ba59684654e7ad4d2080eb/orig.mp4?Expires=1775602341&Signature=E8RseCqHMCJjG7UIUUzWfNpxAhSeivx3mNu~Dameeqz6AxNiz6w9YxFrAgnef9NK~j5yYIkb2A6304X8qkPWLGEDCaTMgsIUQaVooSP4uOie7dG~-143wpU-HkDMiq2L4HlwUEXwphq~VHzlgAbNtoo~ALh0LNleS5QgZBX1BffFvGxtKdQv-78WySLykwDr8d3vpcFhD0CPgfsfMbZ7BwuoFZa3a-F~ZRDh4-w2zxgSAUnBHfKMFLwZxP-hbvsgHFiW0cQ9jRUMRFyA0KwgghDhA21lq2B48liISSYxQmuXXmh1dRp2EcI~eWf62ZAsi4U1raGQLE6W0cCtznAXdg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Bay City ISD staff told trustees they are developing a new CTE pathway in HVAC and construction in partnership with a private vendor (named in internal planning emails) that would supply equipment and curriculum support and help staff training. The superintendent said the partner offered expensive equipment and was willing to help with after-hours training for teachers; a district CTE teacher with relevant expertise will lead implementation on campus.

District leaders said the partner — described as willing to supply and install equipment and work with district staff — aims to structure the rollout so the program adds weighted funding for the district while minimizing net district costs. The superintendent described the partnership as aiming for a “zero sum” financial model where the partner covers a share of startup costs. Trustees were told a fuller presentation with pathway approvals and funding details will come to a future board meeting.

District staff emphasized that the new course fits within existing state CTE pathway rules (courses must form a cohesive program of study) and that certifications are planned only after students are on a stable program sequence (to avoid students earning certifications that do not align with their final program of study). The superintendent and staff said they will return with formal program documentation for board review and asked trustees to expect a detailed proposal in a forthcoming meeting.","District leaders described a new career and technical education pathway in HVAC and construction that a private partner will support with equipment, curriculum and staffing assistance; the district plans a future board presentation with details and said the program aims to be cost-neutral through partner support and weighted funding.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6363259,"Texas A&M proposes K–12 rural medicine outreach and free med camp for Bay City ISD students",274,3819000,4093000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32&start=3819&end=4093","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32/thumbnail_3819000.jpg","/articles/6363259/Texas/Texas-AM-proposes-K12-rural-medicine-outreach-and-free-med-camp-for-Bay-City-ISD-students","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6363259-d411168c3fdad4991fd944a6e47b8b95/orig.mp4?Expires=1775602341&Signature=R3GmLUg8jbxLtGS94zgmUL9HQJQciDtVlPB6kPfDwlpD6jyGwUrbyQuIEjaX-PymgF0gPJHXotSRcBHvVl8JN8AizjRCplo7JV9TzUBePYD-QGmJ3FJ3f0okCdYRWf2e~Fo5yoEBUG7Wc7jK~zo~i2fkepVoHh86XviZ~hb8vux1W0aS3ZS~fCLcnITpRsQbHwgEmFafyK5QvxCmNrOrrmExCNZhz5ezPdqJamBmrn59iHgIPyR1XQBE2IwwWmCbOmMb5OHWQJO4oKWXa-Q6BWzLnwrJ1c6ecdgJxL8ofSKOjsBZbg7dRG9lScDVM5ZMI5XN75vvjHs6XjgAqW3RSA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Carol Rue, assistant director of rural school district relations at Texas A&M, briefed the Bay City ISD board on a K–12 rural medicine outreach program the university is offering to rural districts. Rue said the program—funded in part through state legislative support—has three parts: rotating medical students through rural clinics and hospitals; building rural residency programs and undergraduate outreach; and K–12 enrichment designed to steer local students toward health careers.

Rue said the district can bring students to a multiday med camp at Texas A&M’s College Station campus in June (district to provide transportation and chaperones; the university provides camp instruction, hotel and meals). She also described a regional one-day med camp in Kingsville and classroom Zoom sessions in which medical students and public-health students speak with Bay City students about pathways to medical careers. \"I am honored to build a partnership with Bay City ISD and represent Texas A and Apology Medicine here with you tonight,\" Rue said, noting the program aims to expose students to rural practice and to increase rural provider retention.

The program offers curricular enrichment, virtual sessions, and counselor-facing supports aimed at preparing students to be competitive applicants to health-care-related undergraduate and professional programs. Bay City staff said health‑science teachers have expressed interest and will work with the university to schedule campus‑appropriate sessions; staff named Allison Porter as an internal contact coordinating the effort. The district and Texas A&M agreed to continue planning to align med-camp scheduling with the district’s health science CTE sequence and college‑and‑career pathways.","A Texas A&M representative described a k–12 rural medicine outreach program that includes free med camps, regional day camps, Zoom sessions with medical students, and counseling support for counselors to prepare students for medical college pathways.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6363264,"Bay City ISD reports gains in dual-credit and CCMR measures but English I benchmark falls to 48%",298,893000,1191000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32&start=893&end=1191","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32/thumbnail_893000.jpg","/articles/6363264/Texas/Bay-City-ISD-reports-gains-in-dual-credit-and-CCMR-measures-but-English-I-benchmark-falls-to-48","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6363264-b46e35ad6a4fc8929f98dc53b8dd4695/orig.mp4?Expires=1775602341&Signature=g8q1RugzO2sjFxhC8jCjoV5ZdqEXkfPT0I-8vDFgsepeOPk06Xo7udfBq4bmVwz8JHLLLGiRza7VONF-kM~SPIrqY1WAhVKWbBDCmOS1iuXLPxwcILX7AT16axL5b5FKVz8-8V6txbPG~P6oWQfTTMEIrEpNyRA5zrZ7mThE3xpF392M~gjQSER2~NVSI9grkkjC8lWPwGq4da3JWjFMsi9GKSwT2QN1rhwXnR0hQq8OmFwOcU41Pfxife0fY~f46dvW52JITLFisYnL43rfqlg-J5LBxNkMwKOV4BSPfdpt4xDU-ZPzGfWMEVsHuKHuDG-4Ef9HCKtnZ43lDuvoaA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At a Bay City ISD Board of Trustees meeting, district staff reported increases in students meeting College, Career and Military Readiness (CCMR) markers while flagging a decline in English I benchmark results when a full-length exam was administered in January. District presenters said dual-credit enrollment and TSI (Texas Success Initiative) pass rates have risen this school year, but a comprehensive benchmark for English I produced a 48% “meets” rate in January.

The district presenter said freshmen CCMR indicators rose from 3% last year to 6% in current tracking and noted that if students already enrolled in dual-credit courses were included, some cohorts show an 11% rate. The presenter reported seniors began the year at 58% meeting CCMR markers and were at 63% in January after additional TSI results were counted. The district plans additional TSI testing and Saturday sessions open to eighth graders and current high school students to expand opportunities for students to earn college credit early. \"So as freshmen, they don't come to us with a whole lot, but they started at 3% from the end of last year...and now we are at 6% for real,\" the presenter said.

Board members pressed for more detail about the January English I drop. The presenter said the January assessment was a full benchmark that included content (argumentation and poetry) not covered on earlier short CBAs, which contributed to a lower “meets” percentage than the November checkpoints. The presenter explained differences in performance-level cut scores between eighth grade and ninth grade: approaches raw-score thresholds and performance-standard shifts mean an apparent drop from eighth- to ninth-grade results can reflect higher expectations rather than regressions in student learning. The presenter gave the raw-score thresholds they were using as examples — eighth-grade approaches at 34 and English I approaches at 42 — and said the district will give another full release test in February and provide updated comparisons to teachers.

District staff also outlined operational steps: targeting sophomores and juniors for spring TSI, reserving industry-based certifications for high‑school-level CTE courses (because the state now requires two courses in the same program of study for certification to count toward graduation), and continuing teacher PLC work to spiral and reteach tested skills. A board member asked the superintendent to distribute the underlying data and scale-score conversion tables so trustees could track trends between now and the next benchmark.

The presentation included other academic indicators such as reading/genre assessments and progress on state-required monitoring; staff said they will provide a data packet and hyperlinks to underlying files for the board’s review. The district emphasized follow-up benchmarking in February and additional interventions before spring STAAR testing.","District staff told the school board that more students are earning dual credit and passing TSI, improving College- and Career-Ready (CCMR) indicators, while a full English I benchmark administered in January showed a drop to 48% meeting standard; the board asked staff for follow-up data and additional context.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6363245,"Board approves consent agenda and adjourns after closed-session personnel matter; motions recorded",3390,3788000,7178000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32&start=3788&end=7178","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2166453-17050c1cd2a9736f4bff7dd39b563c32/thumbnail_3788000.jpg","/articles/6363245/Texas/Board-approves-consent-agenda-and-adjourns-after-closed-session-personnel-matter-motions-recorded","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6363245-ad2e632b4a43d7dc81a9c5e250731767/orig.mp4?Expires=1775602341&Signature=NToPBZeRFB63DFKIpbYWpYBAuHU2PIrrUFtroQuFA0ZzjztkILKQJWeZXYASU3mNndPFgfT2EHwGy9Mob9apmZtGm7SJBkmdP-sUlf~OJs0zLbIYIQ4g8BI95vROwuU70f1ScufZMACITPP8xonRL8lGLxLoXIIzillm6hALqndlTIcBnSZPvVnUFH8PnybhHgS6vNxVvxQ6nT4qjiaShCNUOGRhWSRonjfEzCPBIoztQm7udtRoQRd94EOLAEFfOvZPsBTVlXXtRHOVgx58FcrXo40-Rsp4PPhXTuBqpMxyhX-iBb409zdZmqLJGV~WS81APxZiWqBPtl6la60E7A__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","During the meeting the Bay City ISD Board of Trustees approved the consent agenda and later adjourned after reconvening from a closed session to discuss personnel matters.
