Tolleson Union High School District
The ESSER III funds will enable TUHSD to address the learning gaps created due to the pandemic. TUHSD allocates its Title I, Title III, IDEA, and Homeless Ed grants to serve our low-income families, students of color, English learners, children with disabilities, students experiencing homelessness, and children in foster care. We braid and maximize our funds to support our students in intervention programs and school continuous improvement efforts. Our goal is to eliminate barriers that negatively impact academic proficiency by providing embedded intervention during the school day. We will continue to use our federal funds to support our students, such as Title I to sustain in-person tutoring and supports such as the PBIS/SEL student groups. ESSER III will enable TUHSD to provide rigorous interventions, keep our students engaged and safe, to continue with academic growth.
TUHSD will hold quarterly data monitoring meetings with site administration. The curriculum department will discuss each school and their progress in their weekly meetings, and in bi-weekly Principal meetings. Data markers will be published to all administrators. If students do not achieve, they are referred to MTSS and monitored. Also, school sites' Leadership Teams hold quarterly meeting to review TSI Goals, CNA, and IAP. The principals share continuance improvement data in their Principal meetings. The LEA will revisit their plans and assist as needed.
