Our Shared Vision

For Great Schools in Dallas ISD
Real people working together for real solutions for Dallas ISD students and schools
MAY 29
Please join with Dallas parents, educators and residents
for a community discussion where we will share our
vision for ensuring a high-quality public education for all
children.
Our Community, Our Schoolsa coalition of parents, community members, activists, leaders,
civic organizations and faith-based groups that has come together to fight the top-down Home
Rule Charter School effortbelieves:
A real, sustainable plan to help raise student achievement should be
developed with input from parents, educators and members of our community.
Our kids need strong neighborhood-based schools that address the
multifaceted needs of modern learners.
YOUR VOICE MATTERS! The governance structures of our school district and
our schools should provide space for genuine input and decision-making by
parents, educators and students.
