Board approves three high-level district goals; numeric targets left as placeholders
Summary
Tulsa Public Schools' board approved three broad goals for ELA proficiency and senior post-secondary credit attainment but the minutes record target percentages and school years as placeholders (not specified).
The board on Feb. 24 approved three district goals that frame expected improvements in English language arts (ELA) proficiency for elementary and middle grades and an increase in seniors earning post-secondary credits or credentials.
The minutes record the motion by Board Member Calvin Moniz, seconded by Board Member John Croisant, and show the three goal statements with percentage placeholders and generic school-year placeholders (for example, "increase from % in SY 202X to % by SY 203X"). The board recorded the motion as carried 7-0. The minutes do not provide the baseline percentages, target percentages, or the specific school-year endpoints; those figures are noted in the minutes as unspecified placeholders and will need to be supplied by staff in follow-up work.
Because the minutes retain placeholders rather than numeric targets, the board's approval sets direction but does not yet create measurable benchmarks for accountability. The board previously directed staff to develop interim goals and interim guardrails; staff will be expected to return with numeric proposals for board review.
