Title I Schoolwide Components SW1 – Comprehensive Needs Assessment; SW2 – Reform Strategies; SW3 – Highly Qualified Staff; SW4 – Professional Development; SW5 – Recruitment & Retention; SW6 – Parent Involvement; SW7 – Transitions; SW8 – Teachers Involved in Developing Assessment Process; SW9 – Timely Assistance; SW10 – Coordination of Programs

The attendance rate for 2007-2008 is 95%. LVISD receives input and reviews perceptive data through the use of an electronically distributed survey to all employees, students and parents. This information is reviewed in the district leadership and campus teams setting. On May 21, 2009, twelve members of the La Vega ISD conducted their baseline assessment of where the school district is on the Education the Future District Portfolio Continuous Improvement Continuums.

Staff members discussed why they rated the district as they did. The staff then came to consensus on a number that represented where the district is for each indicator. The ratings and brief discussion for each Continuous Improvement Continuum follow along with recommendations for next steps to achieve desired levels.
