Issues
Ensuring Excellence for the Next Generation
Prioritize Academic Excellence
Our job is to prepare Spring Branch ISD students for future success, whether that’s in college, the work force, trade school, or the military. It’s vital that we ensure high academic standards are set to push our kids to their highest potential and remain a top-tier district. The continued expansion of career technology education (CTE) and improvements to our literacy curricula are essential.
Engage the Community
With well over 30,000 students, timely, accurate, and transparent communication is critical. Parents need a reliable avenue to raise and address concerns, and our community should be able to provide feedback on future facilities planning and upgrades. Campus safety can be further improved through relationships with our campus police officers and community stakeholders.
Focus on Fiscal Responsibility
Fiscal responsibility and transparency are key to maintaining the community’s trust. As we advocate for additional funding from the state and explore additional revenue sources, we must ensure taxpayer dollars are used effectively and efficiently. We need to look down the road to strategically plan out long-term projects to avoid cutting programs which benefit our students.
