Houston ISD’s District of Innovation Committee has released the draft plan for the district to become a District of Innovation (DOI).
“The draft plan is designed to support the district’s progress toward Destination 2035, where every student graduates prepared to succeed in the modern workplace and world,” the district said.
School districts in the state that have DOI status are exempt from certain statutory requirements. This allows those district to be more flexible, which can enhance the deliveries of programs and services and help improve student outcomes. The district said specifically, there are proposed exemptions to allow for more instructional days, ensure all students have access to highly effective teachers, ensure school leaders, teachers, and other staff are accountable for the behavior and culture in their schools, and that staff work together to meet students’ unique needs, and expand students’ access to real-world educational opportunities outside the classroom.
“This process involved touring schools, hearing from HISD Board members and programmatic leaders, and meeting as a group over eight convenings to craft and refine the draft plan,” the district said. “The Committee believes it is important to ensure the HISD community understands how the plan will affect students and educators. As such, the Committee took additional steps that are not required as part of the plan.
