Manor ISD to prepare turnaround plans after simultaneous 2024–25 accountability releases; November deadline set
Summary
District staff reported mixed campus accountability results, several F-rated campuses showed numeric-score growth, and the district must submit turnaround plans by Nov. 14 for campuses with required interventions; staff will bring detailed plans for board consideration and a public hearing on Oct. 27.
District staff reported results from the Texas accountability releases covering 2024 and 2025 and explained implications for campuses with multiple unacceptable ratings.
The district-wide rating remained near a low D. Staff said six of nine elementary campuses improved their overall numeric score and three elementary campuses moved from F toward D-range scores; at the secondary level four of five campuses improved, and Manor New Tech High School moved from C to B. Staff identified five elementary campuses and two secondary campuses that previously had F ratings and reported that each of those listed campuses showed numeric-score growth (for example, Decker Middle School grew 10 percentage points; Manor Middle School grew 7 percentage points).
Staff told trustees that sanctions for consecutive F ratings are suspended for this year and next because of an "1882 partnership with Third Future Schools" (as described in the presentation) but cautioned that campuses must reach a C rating to "hit reset" and avoid resumption of sanction timelines. For campuses requiring intervention, staff said the district must submit turnaround plans (TAPs) by Nov. 14; administrators said they will bring specific plans to the board for consideration and hold a public hearing at the Oct. 27 meeting.
Trustees asked about root-cause analysis and campus-specific diagnostics; staff said they will use campus needs assessments, iStation and iReady data (with caution), discipline and attendance metrics, and a campus-leadership scorecard to focus interventions. Staff emphasized instructional leadership, coaching, calibrated classroom observations and mentor programs (including a partnership with UT’s Thrive program) as key strategies. District leaders said they will use federal-program levers where possible to compensate mentors and support turnaround work.
No formal board action was taken on accountability items at the meeting; staff will return with TAPs and associated documents for board review and public comment in October and November.
