Trustees approve District of Innovation amendments
Summary
Goose Creek CISD trustees voted May 4 to approve proposed District of Innovation amendments after a motion by Trustee Richard Clem; the motion carried unanimously among present trustees.
The Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District Board of Trustees approved proposed District of Innovation (DOI) amendments during their regular meeting on May 4, 2026. Trustee Richard Clem moved for approval and Mrs. Helen Berrott-Tims seconded; the motion passed with President James “Jim” Campisi, Mr. Clem, Mrs. Tiffany Guy, Mr. Howard Sampson, Mr. Mercedes Renteria III and Mrs. Berrott-Tims voting in favor.
The approval was recorded in the motion language as presented to the Board. The DOI designation allows the district to pursue specified local flexibilities under Texas law; the minutes record formal board action but do not list the specific statutory flexibilities included in the amendments. The Board took the vote in open session after informational reports earlier in the evening; no public comment on the DOI changes is recorded in the minutes.
The Board’s action is reflected in the meeting minutes and will be implemented according to district administrative processes. Any specific policy text changes or effective dates were not specified in the minutes and are therefore recorded here as not specified.
