New Braunfels ISD’s Comprehensive Needs Assessment Process (CNA)
State and federal law both require schools to conduct a comprehensive needs assessment (CNA) as part of the planning and decision making process. The
purpose of the CNA is to examine multiple sources of data to identify the priority needs and direction for the school. This process is the pre-work to the
development of the campus and district improvement plans and decisions regarding the justification for use of NCLB and other State funds. When conducted
properly, the CNA provides schools with identified strengths and weaknesses and specifies priorities for addressing student achievement and meeting
challenging academic and performance standards.
Conducting a CNA is a process, not an event. Data collection and analysis is ongoing to ensure that progress toward the school’s objectives, goals, mission and
vision are being realized. Areas to be addressed include student performance and achievement; school climate and safety; staff quality and professional
development; curriculum, instruction and assessment; parent and community involvement; school organization and policy; and technology.
1. Campus administrators review NBISD Goals and purpose and outcomes for conducting the CNA with a campus team (principals, teachers, and staff).
Expectations and guidelines are established and short and long-term timelines are set.
2. Each campus establishes teams composed of parents and community members, teachers, and administrators that meet throughout the year to examine
multiple sources of data. Sources of data may include, but are not limited to, parent, student and teacher surveys; academic achievement on local and
state assessments; review of State AEIS and Federal AYP reports; and review of prior year campus improvement plans. Meeting agendas, minutes and
sign-in sheets document this process.
3. Teams analyze collected data to identify campus strengths and needs. Needs are prioritized and all findings are recorded on campus CNA summary.
4. Campus representative’s review identified strengths and prioritized needs to a meeting of the Campus Improvement Committee (CIC). This data is
compiled and used in developing the school’s comprehensive needs assessment.
5. CNA findings are connected to the campus and district improvement plan development and review process. District and campus improvement plans
identify strategies and activities designed to address prioritized campus and district needs. Priorities and needs correlate with justifications for Title I-III
and SCE program expenditures.
