Board adopts quarterly Lone Star governance progress tracker, sets next-quarter targets
Summary
Using the Lone Star Governance rubric the board scored its current practices, debated realistic next-quarter numeric targets across categories (vision and goals, progress & accountability, systems), and voted to accept the quarterly progress tracker to submit to TEA.
Board members spent the bulk of the meeting conducting a line-by-line Lone Star Governance (LSG) self-evaluation designed to measure how board behaviors align to student-outcome goals. The presentation walked trustees through rubric columns ("does not meet," "preparing," "approaches," "meets," "masters") and prompted trustees to set explicit numeric next-quarter targets for multiple categories.
Trustees and staff discussed tangible measures: having Goal Progress Measures (GPMs) set, adopting superintendent constraint progress measures (CPMs), starting community "two-way" communications, and voting to accept monitoring reports. After debate about realistic targets for the next 0.25, the board voted to accept the quarterly progress tracker and the set of next-quarter targets (motion passed; vote recorded in meeting minutes).
