How We Work

Frisco ISD’s Dynamic Organizational Strategy includes a foundational vision, strategic plan, data-driven actions, and local accountability. As we analyze the need for changes to programs or practices, we work through a hierarchy of purpose that intentionally aligns our goals and actions with our mission, vision, and priorities.

Purpose

Frisco ISD’s core purpose is education. We create future-ready learners by empowering all students to pursue their passion and purpose 

Vision

Frisco ISD’s vision of empowering students to pursue their passion and purpose is met by a set of conditions that focus on the long-term growth, development and success of the whole child. These conditions are outlined in our Future-Ready Framework which consists of six focus areas that serve as the foundation for our continuous improvement efforts.

Priorities

The Board of Trustees annually adopts priorities, aligned with the Future-Ready Framework, to ensure Frisco ISD’s vision is being carried out in alignment with community input. Board priorities represent specific ideals within the framework on which district leaders should focus their time, energy, and resources over the coming year.

Systems

Systems refer to programs, practices, and policies that support our work. Once the direction for the year is set through Board-adopted priorities, District leaders review the systems in place and set district-wide goals for improvement.

Resources

Once goals are set, FISD can begin to evaluate whether resources are adequate to effect change. Resources include people, money and time.

Results

Each improvement effort will produce some return on investment, and the District must have a mechanism to measure the effectiveness of the change in the system. FISD’s local accountability system provides a mechanism for reporting data and other success measures aligned to the Future-Ready Framework. Results are reported annually in our District Accountability Report.
