District presents 2024–25 professional development plan and an AgriLife adjunct appointment
Summary
Trustees were asked to approve the 2024–25 Bracket ISD professional development plan and were informed of an AgriLife adjunct faculty agreement naming Brett Allen as the district's adjunct; administration explained statutory and reporting requirements for PD and adjunct arrangements.
The board heard a presentation of the district's 2024–25 professional development plan, which administration said is aligned to TEA training requirements and district and campus improvement plans. A staff reader outlined the statutory framework requiring the board to annually review and approve the district professional development plan.
Administration also presented an AgriLife extension adjunct faculty agreement and named Brett Allen as the adjunct faculty member for Bracket ISD. "The AgriLife extension adjunct faculty agreement and hereby name Brett Allen, the adjunct faculty member for bracket ISD," the presenter read into the record.
Administration explained that adjunct staff must meet minimum-degree requirements to be eligible for TRS participation and that certain conditions allow off-campus activities to be counted for attendance funding under TAC rules. The presentation concluded with the administration recommending approval of the PD plan and adjunct agreement for 2024–25.
Why it matters: The PD plan determines mandatory and elective staff training and connects to attendance/funding rules; adjunct appointments enable district partnerships that can broaden course offerings.
