District improvement plan aligns to strategic priorities; administrators outline reading, attendance and behavior strategies
Summary
District staff presented the district improvement plan, aligning instructional strategies and operational initiatives to the recently developed strategic plan; the plan includes foundational literacy actions, a districtwide behavior framework and attendance interventions with local court collaboration for truancy when appropriate.
A district administrator presented the Corsicana ISD District Improvement Plan, saying many strategies are intentionally aligned to the district’s strategic plan and summarizing goals, performance objectives and strategies across academics, relationships and school climate.
The presentation highlighted academic strategies including sustained K‑12 RTI (response to intervention), professional learning communities across campuses, implementation of the Bluebonnet instructional materials with fidelity for foundational literacy (K–2) and supplemental interventions for grades 3–4, expansion of an EOC class and after‑school tutoring at the high school, and ongoing instructional coaching supported by Region 12’s Texas Instructional Leadership work.
Attendance and relationships: The administrator said the district will continue to use SchoolStatus to track attendance and communicate with families, and will “leverage county resources to support district attendance efforts by collaborating with the local court system to file truancy cases when appropriate.” The presenter noted the district has agreed to resume filing in those cases.
Behavior and safety: The plan includes implementing a consistent, districtwide behavior management framework. The presentation named Capturing Kids’ Hearts (CKH) as the chosen framework for tier 1 behavior supports, a new tier‑1 behavior support coaching position, and continued work on bus safety technology including a smart‑tag system on buses.
Why it matters: The district improvement plan translates the strategic priorities into specific instructional and operational strategies that, if implemented, would affect curriculum, staffing, student supports and safety practices across Corsicana ISD.
Discussion versus decision: This agenda item was a presentation and summary of strategies; the transcript records descriptions of the strategies and a request for questions. No formal board vote on the district improvement plan is recorded in the provided excerpt.
