Crosby ISD implements updated academic action plan to boost student performance

Crosby ISD is taking significant steps to enhance academic performance across its campuses, focusing on critical subjects such as math and science. During the recent board meeting held on March 17, 2025, district officials outlined their academic action plan, which prioritizes fifth-grade science, fourth-grade math, and middle school math for sixth and seventh grades, along with English 1 and 2 at the high school level.

The plan emphasizes collaboration between curriculum coordinators and teachers to ensure alignment across all campuses. This includes dedicated planning time aimed at addressing gaps in student learning and providing targeted remediation for those not meeting growth goals. District personnel are actively involved in supporting teachers and students, with a shift in focus from teacher training in the fall to direct student assistance in the spring.

Despite previous efforts, some regression in student performance was noted, prompting discussions on how to adapt strategies to better meet the needs of students. Officials acknowledged the importance of refining instructional methods to enhance understanding and engagement in the classroom.

The district is committed to closing learning gaps swiftly, with ongoing support from both campus and district coordinators. This proactive approach aims to ensure that all students receive the necessary resources and guidance to succeed academically, reinforcing Crosby ISD's dedication to educational excellence.
