Key Instructional Action Steps

To address specific performance gaps and work toward higher achievement thresholds across all campuses, Navarro ISD is implementing several targeted strategies:

• Increasing Classroom Rigor: Realigning tier-one instruction to help more students transition from "Meets" to "Masters Grade Level" through higher-order questioning and complex problem-solving frameworks.
• Targeted Support for Economically Disadvantaged Cohorts: Utilizing localized, student-by-student data tracking to ensure high-impact tutoring and study resources directly reach students needing additional support.
• Dedicated Intervention Pathways: Utilizing daily advisory time for small-group instruction, and targeted skill remediation.
• Blended Learning & Resource Alignment: Implementing real-time digital assessment tools and adjusting instructional materials to better support Special Education, Emergent Bilingual, and lower performing student groups.

While the district is celebrating the consistent progress and recent improvements—such as projected growth in CCMR scores for the next accountability year—district and campus leaders acknowledge that continuous improvement is needed to help all student groups grow and reach the district's long-term academic priorities.
