Damon ISD approves Region 4 RISE support agreement for STAAR grades
Summary
Trustees approved a Region 4 Services Agreement for RISE instructional support covering Math and RLA STAAR/EOC-tested grades (June 19, 2026–Aug. 30, 2027); the contract documents show an initial $0 charge but include an estimated program value of $350,000 and a clause allowing billing if district participation requirements are unmet.
The Damon ISD Board of Trustees voted July 16 to approve a services agreement with Region 4 Education Service Center to provide RISE (Rapid Instructional Systems Enhancement) district-level support intended for Math and RLA STAAR/EOC-tested grades. Trustee Jason Soileau moved to approve the agreement; the motion passed unanimously.
Contract documents attached to the meeting record (Contract ID 1975127) describe RISE services from June 19, 2026, through August 30, 2027, and list an initial charge to the district of $0 with an estimated program value of $350,000. The agreement is explicit that Region 4 expects district participation and may seek to bill for personnel and program costs, up to specified amounts per assigned RISE regional coordinator, if the district fails to meet participation requirements.
The Region 4 package also includes a Data Privacy addendum that frames Region 4 staff and contractors as school officials with legitimate educational interests under FERPA and describes secure data-sharing expectations. The services agreement in the record is signed by Region 4 and by Interim Superintendent Dr. Marshall Scott on June 24, 2026. Trustees did not discuss cost-neutral conditions or potential billing triggers in public detail during the motion.
