Last Meeting in Series on TISD Long Range Plan
Posted/updated on: September 22, 2011 at 6:01 pm
TYLER — Tyler ISD is wrapping up a series of public meetings on the long range plan it’s been developing. The meetings began September 13; the final get-together is at 6:00 tonight at Jack Elementary. Superintendent Randy Reid encourages everyone to come out and offer feedback on the plan.
“We are expecting our student population to grow by over 2,500 students by the year 2020,” said Reid. “Our long range plan will prepare us for this growth.” The long range plan presentations offer alternatives related to the renovation and repurposing of existing Tyler ISD properties, as well as the construction of new buildings. Members of the community who attend the public meetings are invited to complete a brief survey providing their feedback on the various alternatives.
Those who are not able to attend a long range plan presentation go to http://www.tylerisd.org to view a video of the presentation and complete the survey online. All information is posted in both English and Spanish. Both versions of the presentation will also be shown on TISD Channel 19. “As a district, we want to seek the input of the community to ensure our plan meets or exceeds their expectations,” Reid stated. Tyler ISD plans to gather all feedback by Friday, September 30.
