IDEA Elsa College Prep IDEA Public Schools IDEA Carver Academy 2019 – 2020 Student Achievement Improvement Plan DISTRICT MISSION: IDEA Public Schools prepares students from underserved communities for success in college and citizenship. DISTRICT VISION: To ensure students reach their potential, IDEA Public Schools will become the region’s largest creator of college graduates. DISTRICT CORE VALUES: Closing the achievement gap and ensuring college success is the best way to help our students succeed in life, contribute to their communities, and overcome the obstacles they face. Achieving this requires the following beliefs and behaviors: No Excuses: We control our destiny. What we do during the day matters more than poverty, parent education level, or other external factors. When the adults in the system get it right, our students are successful. Conversely, when our students fail, we don’t blame unsupportive parents, parent education level, or other external factors: we look in the mirror and take responsibility. Whatever it Takes: Through continuous improvement we achieve ambitious results. Those most successful at IDEA seek feedback, pore over the data, identify root causes, and implement solutions. 100% Every Day: Our mission and goals apply to 100% of our students, 100% of the time. Creating opportunities that didn’t exist isn’t easy, and it requires that people give their best every day. Sweating the Small Stuff: The difference between excellence and mediocrity lies in paying attention and caring about the countless details that go into effective execution. Team and Family: As the source of strength for our organization, we are committed to attracting and developing high caliber people. CAMPUS MISSION: IDEA Carver prepares students from underserved communities for success in college and citizenship by creating a challenging learning environment, setting high expectations and believing that everyone can learn- College for ALL!

Our job at the Texas Charter Schools Association is to give these educators the support, resources, and freedom they need to do their life-changing work. We’re advocates for charter schools. We’re also advisors and facilitators. We’re in the statehouse, in the media, and in other venues where charter school policy is being debated. We’re making the case for charter schools—why they’re valued by families and educators, how they’re improving the prospects of students and communities, and why more students should have access to a great charter school. TCSA works with charter school leaders, board members, teachers, students, parents, alumni, and donors to build a strong infrastructure for charter school growth.

  • Letter to Households, Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) 2021-2022
    Letter to Households, Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) 2021-2022 July 1, 2021 Dear IDEA Parent/Guardian: We are pleased to inform you that the Child Nutrition Program at IDEA Public Schools will be implementing the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) under the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs for the 2021-2022 school year. In CEP schools, applications are no longer required. Through the CEP, parents/guardians, who have students at qualifying CEP schools, will not be required to submit a meal application for free, reduced, and full priced meals for the upcoming school year. However, the Student Information System of IDEA Public Schools will obtain income surveys as per state compliance to obtain social economic data for some students not currently directly certified through CEP. Income surveys are only to obtain data and will not affect students from CEP schools to qualify for free breakfast and lunch. Schools that participate in CEP provide healthy breakfasts and lunches each day at no charge for ALL students enrolled in that CEP school during the 2021-2022 school year. The IDEA school sites that qualify for the CEP for the 2021-2022 school year include: Rio Grande Valley San Antonio Austin El Paso Tarrant Houston County IDEA Donna IDEA Carver IDEA Montopolis IDEA Rio Vista IDEA Rise IDEA Hardy IDEA Edinburg IDEA Eastside IDEA Bluff Springs IDEA Edgemere IDEA Achieve IDEA Spears IDEA McAllen IDEA Judson IDEA Rundberg IDEA Mesa Hills IDEA Edgecliff IDEA Mission IDEA Mays IDEA Kyle IDEA Horizon Vista IDEA North
