Strategic Planning

 

Welcome to the West ISD Strategic Planning Team Work and Information Site! 

 

It's an exciting time in the history of West ISD! Back in 2017, the West ISD Strategic Planning Team (SPT) held several planning sessions and discussions about the future of our school district. With the completion of the new West Middle and High School campus, the district's attention turned to other areas of need. Topics included student and community growth projections, facility needs, teaching and learning initiatives, technology implementation, staffing, state and federal accountability mandates, and budget needs.

 

Through this work, goals and actions statements were crafted. One of the action goals centered on the need for a new West Elementary School campus. In May 2018, a Bond Election was held seeking passage of a $20,000,000. bond for a new campus on a new site. The measure failed by 61 votes, but the resolve of the District and community was never stronger. After taking time to partner with and listen to our community, the District organized a new Bond for November 2019. This new bond amount was for $21,485,000. to be located off Cottonwood Road. With the focus on the students of West ISD, the community came together and approved the new Bond, 875 to 606. 

 

Then again in 2024, the SPT was reformed and new discussions and planning sessions were held to help plan for the future of West ISD. Actions statements included work on several district facility needs, a plan for growth at West Elementary School, new programs at West Middle and High School, new district fundraising guidelines, new safety and security measures, and new district-wide counseling programs. 

 

In addition to the SPT information, this website also holds all required postings for our work on the state's District of Innovation (DOI) designation and federal ESSER I-III Grant plan.
