Frisco Independent School District (Frisco ISD) has outlined its priorities for the 2024-2025 school year, focusing on fostering excellence and promoting student growth. These priorities, approved by the board of trustees on June 10, aim to position Frisco ISD as a premier destination for students and staff alike.
Key Priorities for 2024-2025:
- Championing Frisco ISD: The district aims to unite staff and the community to establish Frisco ISD as a top choice for education and employment. This involves enhancing the district’s reputation and ensuring that it remains an attractive place for both students and educators.
- Cultivating a Culture of Respect: Frisco ISD is committed to fostering a respectful and positive learning environment. This priority focuses on ensuring that all interactions within the district are marked by mutual respect and positive behavior, creating a conducive atmosphere for learning.
- Promoting Excellence and Student Growth: The district seeks to provide differentiated and relevant learning experiences that cater to the diverse needs of students. By offering a variety of curricular and extracurricular opportunities, Frisco ISD aims to support comprehensive student development and academic excellence.
During preliminary discussions, the board emphasized the importance of increasing parent involvement and equipping staff to manage student behavior effectively. These elements are considered crucial for maintaining an environment where learning is not disrupted and students can thrive.
Kimberly Smith, Frisco ISD’s Chief Finance and Strategy Officer, highlighted that these priorities are aspirational and designed to guide the district's efforts in improving education quality. Unlike specific goals, which are quantifiable, these priorities provide a broad vision for where the district should focus its time, energy, and resources over the next year.
The approved priorities will serve as the foundation for the district’s improvement plan for the 2024-2025 school year. District officials, along with the board, will develop specific goals based on these priorities to ensure measurable progress.
Frisco ISD’s approach reflects a commitment to continuous improvement and a strategic focus on creating an inclusive and high-performing educational environment. This strategic focus is not a mere aspiration, but a well-thought-out plan that has been designed to ensure the best possible outcomes for our students.
Parents and community members are encouraged to engage with the district’s initiatives and support the realization of these priorities, knowing that they are part of a well-planned and strategic process.
