Introduction: Texas School for the Deaf District Improvement Plan 2017-2018
TSD’s District Improvement Plan (DIP) is designed to implement Year Two of our school’s Five Year Strategic Plan. The DIP was developed by the Chairs of the Five Year Plan Strategic Goal Teams and was designed to better align the DIP with the Five Year Strategic Plan.
The TSD Five Year Plan for 2016 – 2021 consists of six strategic priorities:
Communication
Academic and Personal Achievement
Staff Support
Data-Driven Decision-Making
Outreach for Maximum Statewide Impact
Campus and Facilities
DIP Monitoring Process
Strategic Goal Team Chairs and the Executive Leadership Team will provide periodic status reports on the DIP during the course of the school year. The status reports, which will be made available on a searchable spreadsheet, will be arranged by strategic priorities and will include status indicators and outcomes as outlined in our DIP action plans.
Regulatory Appendices
Over a period of several years, a number of state and federal regulations have required the addition of certain components to the DIP. An appendix has been added to address these required state and federal components.

Collaborative efforts with higher ed will result in data that can be used to either show program effectiveness and gain further support for programming or to make programmatic changes for greater effectiveness. Success will be measured by either by accumulation of data and resulting in a) greater support for programming or b) change in programming leading to greater participation and positive outcomes.
Collaborative interagency efforts will result in increased capacity for outreach by matching funding with manpower/expertise. Success will be measured by increase in programming and resulting positive outcomes.

Finding that though all agencies willing to collaborate, all are facing funding challenges. The trick will be to identify where our missions overlap so that funds can be used more efficiently and outcomes can be amplified through collaboration.
Identify areas of need, areas of overlapping missions, and identify projects that can be accomplished with shared responsibilities, funds or in kind efforts.
