00:00:00,00 --> 00:00:05,700
Klein ISD recently kicked off guiding coalitions 
focused on student success. Learn more, next.

2
00:00:05,710 --> 00:00:10,300


3
00:00:10,310 --> 00:00:15,200
During my first 100 days, I carefully studied 
Klein data and that of comparable districts.

4
00:00:15,210 --> 00:00:20,700
One area that immediately drew my attention 
is the percentage of English Language Learners 
and Special Education students...

5
00:00:20,710 --> 00:00:24,100
...who graduate college-ready in both English 
Language Arts and Math.

6
00:00:24,110 --> 00:00:28,700
These are critical areas that we must address 
with a focused sense of urgency.

7
00:00:28,710 --> 00:00:33,950
The district determined that through Guiding 
Coalition teams we can address this critical 
need.

8
00:00:33,950 --> 00:00:40,000
These teams meet monthly and are committed 
to leading and supporting a collaborative 
change effort to improve student learning 
and performance.

9
00:00:40,010 --> 00:00:45,600
One guiding Coalition will focus on our English 
Language Learners and the other will support 
our Special Education students.

10
00:00:45,610 --> 00:00:52,700
Each team will create a shared vision, select 
actions to achieve that vision and recruit 
others to participate in these endeavors.

11
00:00:52,710 --> 00:00:59,200
The Guiding Coalition team member selection 
process began with nominations from educators 
that exhibit seven attributes.

12
00:00:59,210 --> 00:01:04,500
Nominees deeply care about students and their 
educational experiences, are dedicated to 
improving student outcomes...

13
00:01:04,510 --> 00:01:08,990
...work to transform "why we can't" to "how 
we can"...

14
00:01:08,990 --> 00:01:12,200
...empower others to invoke change, inspire 
individuals to action...

15
00:01:12,210 --> 00:01:14,300
...leverage technology to accelerate progress...

16
00:01:14,310 --> 00:01:18,500
...and finally, step forward to create a 
positive and long-lasting change.

17
00:01:18,510 --> 00:01:26,500
More than 100 educators asked to participate, 
or were nominated by their colleagues to 
participate in this critically important 
work for our students.

18
00:01:26,510 --> 00:01:31,600
I want to thank each of these educators for 
seeking out this opportunity to serve and 
lead the district.

19
00:01:31,610 --> 00:01:35,800
I look forward to the work and outcomes from 
the Guiding Coalition team members.

20
00:01:35,810 --> 00:01:39,400
We know their work will make a difference 
in the lives of our students.

21
00:01:39,410 --> 00:01:42,600
That's Klein ISD in 90 seconds. See you next 
week.

22
00:01:42,610 --> 00:01:46,000
