  • Wimberley Independent School District a Texas School Performance Review
    Executive Summary The Wimberley Independent School District A Texas School Performance Review The 1990 Texas Legislature created the Comptroller's Texas School Performance Review (TSPR) to help the state's school districts, both large and small, to deliver the best possible educational services to their children in the most efficient and cost-effective way. Texas is now engaged in a critical debate over how-and how much-to pay to educate its children, and all of the state's customers deserve to know that schools are accountable for the cost and quality of the education they deliver. Who are these customers? They are the parents and families, as well the children, and the teachers, principals, and employees who work in more than 1,000 school districts across Texas. Ultimately, the taxpayers who support local schools also benefit from efficient and effective schools, and they deserve to know that their tax dollars are not wasted. Only then will they be willing to invest the time, energy, and resources required to ensure our children receive the education they need to succeed. TSPR IN WIMBERLEY TSPR began its review of the Wimberley Independent School District (WISD) in February 1998. As in its previous reviews of 28 other Texas school districts, the review team went to Wimberley in response to a local call for assistance. In July 1997, the Board of Trustees and Superintendent David Simmons, along with many members of the Wimberley community, requested a performance review of WISD. WISD presented a unique challenge for the TSPR team, which had not reviewed a district with a student population of less than 2,000 since its initial 1991 pilot project.
