OUR VISION
What Does #1 in Education Mean?
A Vision as Big and Bold as Texas.
We believe the future of Texas depends not only on what children know but on who they become.
- Texas should rank #1 in Reading and Math/Algebra in the NAEP 8th Grade Report Card.
- Texas should be the #1 state for deep literacy.
- Texas parents should understand their children’s school funding as clearly as they understand their college tuition.
- Texas public schools should be the safest place on earth for all kids.
- School should be engaging, fun, and personalized with individualized options — not a one-size-fits-all factory.
- Hold extremely high standards for all learners, but vary instruction to meet the specific needs of individual students to reach that high bar.
- Students should progress through school based on content mastery, not age or grades.
- Leadership at every level of the state and district system should be held accountable and incentivized with merit pay and job continuation.
- Parents should be treated as high-value customers.
- Assessments should deliver immediate actionable feedback for growth that parents can understand.
- Graduation should produce college-ready, vocationally certified, military-ready, or first-job-ready, high-agency individuals who are fully prepared and free for their own pursuit of happiness and prosperity.
- Real outcomes — defined as grade level proficiency and mastery, along with financial stewardship and transparency — should be financially rewarded.
