The Board of Education created the Board Monitoring System as a mechanism to measure the district's progress in achieving goals outlined in the board's Declaration of Beliefs and Visions (.pdf).  It  establishes a schedule of detailed reporting to the board and community on the district's efforts  and effective use of taxpayer dollars to meet the district's facilities standards, and evaluate all major programs and services on a regular basis.

The system requires more in-depth reporting and analysis than is required by state law and the Texas Education Agency. It was designed to give the board, district administrators, and the public a data-driven accountability system that reports regularly, and it has become a key springboard for steering district policy, priorities, and initiatives.
