How does this fit into Georgetown ISD's strategic plan?
The statements below are taken straight from GISD's strategic plan. Expanding the dual language program beyond 5th grade fits in well with the strategic plan developed by the school board and district.
Strategic plan
In 2023 and beyond, active recruitment means we’ll have to look for the right teachers abroad and in non-traditional places.
We engage with our growing Hispanic population by developing bilingualism to a high standard. We grow our existing dual language program into a model other districts will want to follow.
We see the needs of today and anticipate the needs of tomorrow. Despite the challenges, we advocate so that our students are well prepared to meet those needs.
