Primary Goal 1: Increase Student Performance

HISD student performance will demonstrate growth evidenced on state and national standardized assessments, thus narrowing achievement gaps to graduate all students equipped for college and career readiness.

Supporting Goal 2: Create and Support a Positive District Culture

Through clear articulation of the district’s mission, HISD will create a powerful sense of community and shared direction among personnel, parents, students, and the public. Realizing the value of our human assets, HISD will work to attract and retain the best teachers and staff members while creating an environment in which they may flourish.

Supporting Goal 3: Provide for Technology Enhanced Learning

HISD will provide students with technology integrated instruction and learning opportunities in all classes.

Supporting Goal 4: Improve Public Support, Confidence, and Communication

The schools of Hemphill ISD belong to the citizens of our district, hence the board, administration, and support staff are public servants charged to support the schools and the relationship between teachers, students, and parents. Public confidence and support increases as a result of district transparency, all-inclusive accountability, effective communication, and meaningful community engagement.
