STRATEGIC

PLAN GOALS 2024-2029

Inspiring students to learn, empowering them for life starts with us – all of us.

Staff, students, families and community members significantly contributed to developing the district’s five-year strategic plan.

We’re grateful for the invaluable input we received during four summits, focus groups, and a survey.

Round Rock ISD administrators have identified several areas of improvement based on community feedback, with potential deadlines for achieving these goals incorporated into the strategic plan.

2018-2019 Documents and Presentations

In January 2018, the Board of Trustees directed District staff to undertake a refresh of the Strategic Plan goals, as well as the District Vision Statement and Learning Framework, to ensure all are in line with community expectations and vision for its public school system. Community members were invited to participate on the Strategic Plan Refresh Committee and convened in three separate meetings to review and refresh current goals, brainstorm a new Vision Statement, and provide feedback on the District’s Learning Framework. The result was a set of draft goals and two potential Vision Statements for approval.

  1. We will ensure that all facilities are safe and advance learning for every student while planning with our community for sustainable growth.
  2. We will promote academic excellence through learning and enrichment opportunities that engage and inspire every student.
  3. We will implement internal and external communication systems to engage and inform, build trust, and develop partnerships with students, staff, parents, and the community.
  4. We will identify, develop, support, and retain a talented team of teachers, administrators, and staff who are equipped to meet the needs of every student.
  5. We will develop the whole child, cultivating the social and emotional skills needed to thrive in a diverse and ever-changing world.
  6. We will prepare every student for success after high school through a variety of experience and learning pathways.
