Stakeholder Feedback
While Texas has set a number of strict requirements, we have an opportunity to customize our TIA program so that it matches the culture, goals, and needs of Alba-Golden ISD. The application we submitted in April 2023 reflects the preferences and priorities of Alba-Golden ISD teachers and leaders. Stakeholder feedback is critical to the development of our local designation plan for TIA. A steering committee has been established with representatives from every campus. If you have input regarding the local plan, please share that with your campus representative(s).
