Summary:
|
As part of Crowley ISD’s Long-Range Facility Planning process, the district is creating an Education Specifications Committee. Texas public schools are required to have these by law.
Education Specifications are defined as the design standards and concepts to be used to guide new facility construction and major space renovations to create engaging and effective learning environments. The specifications, created by the Education Specification Committee, will help establish performance expectations for facilities by incorporating principles and strategies for successful teaching and learning with the build environment.
To meet the requirements of TEC §61.1040, The education specifications will include the school district mission, vision, goals, and pedagogy; (ii) preliminary details related to facility type, grades served, and maximum student enrollment; (iii) pertinent provisions of the multi-hazard emergency operations plan that may inform the functionality of the built environment, including how the district complies with TEC, §37.108; (iv) a written statement that includes: (I) inclusive design goals and considerations supported by the school district; and (II) how inclusive design should be addressed in new and renovated facility designs; (v) minimum total square footage required to comply with the quantitative method of compliance; and (vi) innovative teaching or operational practices intended for implementation at the instructional facility that may lead to the use of the qualitative method of compliance. (B) Schedule. An educational specification shall be created for each campus type.
A total of 30 participants is recommended, consisting of:
• 5 district level administrators
• 5 teachers
• 5 parents
• 5 students
• 5 staff (principal, counselor, special populations teachers, etc.)
• 5 community members
Committee meetings are currently scheduled for:
