Clear Creek ISD cabinet reports end-of-year progress: safety compliance, attendance gains and academic measures
Summary
Cabinet members updated trustees on a range of end-of-year metrics tied to the district’s strategic goals: campus safety assessments and remediation, leadership and professional learning, higher attendance, improved assessment results in early grades, and program-evaluation activity.
Cabinet members briefed the Clear Creek Independent School District board on end‑of‑year progress tied to the district’s 2024–25 goals, covering campus safety compliance, professional learning and leadership development, student assessment results, attendance, and program evaluation work.
The update included concrete compliance targets and next steps for remaining gaps, as well as early outcome data on instruction and student performance. Trustees were given timelines for correcting safety‑related documentation and information about staff engagement survey gains.
Why it matters: The report addressed districtwide safety readiness before the 2025–26 school year, measures of teacher and student engagement, and progress on instructional initiatives that district leaders say are linked to student outcomes and community confidence.
Highlights presented to the board: - Safety compliance and vulnerability assessments: Cameron (emergency-management coordinator) and his team used a locally cited 84‑item vulnerability framework. The presenters reported 100% compliance on 27 campus‑level criteria and approximately 70% compliance (about 40 items) on 57 district‑level criteria; 21% were partially compliant and 9% (five items) were noncompliant. Staff said the outstanding items mainly require improved documentation and a centralized record of summer trainings and policy procedures; they pledged to complete the remaining items before the 2025–26 school year. - Centralized vulnerability/prevention system: The district will use its Canvas learning‑management environment to house safety standards, campus‑specific documents and a reporting tool for staff to flag vulnerabilities to district safety staff. - School safety committee: The district expanded its school safety and security committee from 18 to 29 members over the year to increase campus and community representation. - Behavioral supports and the Behavioral Support Center (BSC): The district reported it served seven students in the BSC this year (grades 1, 3 and 5); five of those students had ARD meetings and were placed back on their home campuses with supports, and one enrolled in a nonpublic day school. - Staff engagement and turnover: The district reported progress in employee engagement measured by an external Energage survey; the overall workplace experience score rose to 67% in May 2025, a 7‑point increase from the prior release and 10 points over three years. Earlier-turnover targets referenced a 15% target; the district’s 2023–24 turnover was reported at about 10% and the year-end 2024–25 turnover figure will be finalized in July. - Instructional outcomes and assessments: District leaders reported meets/higher performance gains in several interim and STAAR-related measures. Early-grade results on the Amplify reading assessment met or exceeded the district’s 75% targets in kindergarten and grades 1–2. Preliminary STAAR and EOC early-release data showed districtwide combined performance of 81% approaches, 59% meets and 29% masters, with masters up about 2 percentage points year over year. The district reported cohort-level growth on its high‑priority learning standards and an early college/Texas Success Initiative (TSI) rate of 82.6% — above the district’s 77% goal for the 2025 graduates on that component of College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR). - Attendance and related outcomes: District leaders reported a student average daily attendance (ADA) of 95.0% and a staff attendance of 95.6% for the year — metrics leaders characterized as signs of organizational health and an area that required coordinated work across offices. - Programs, innovation and supports: The board heard updates on a new P‑TECH early college health‑sciences strand (30 students enrolled for 2025–26), the planned GetMyInterns mentorship platform and a CarePortal launch connecting faith‑based partners to higher‑need cases. The district also reported completion of seven program evaluations and the adoption of a program-evaluation clearinghouse.
Board discussion and next steps: Trustees praised the cabinet for the improvements and asked staff to continue addressing the partially compliant safety items, expand behavior supports where gaps remain and provide finalized year‑end turnover figures in July. Staff said they will centralize documentation, finish vulnerability remediation over the summer and continue leadership and professional‑learning programs.
Ending note: Cabinet members said many items will be refined over the summer and reported confidence in the district’s ability to correct outstanding safety documentation and continue work on instructional priorities ahead of the 2025–26 school year.
