Introduction and Needs Assessment Summary

The Humble Independent School District (HISD) serves the communities of Humble, Kingwood, Atascocita, Summerwood, Eagle Springs, and Fall Creek. The District’s boundaries encompass approximately 90 square miles in Harris County. Humble ISD is nationally recognized for the outstanding education it offers to students, and is listed among the 25 fastest growing school districts in Texas. The District provides a well-rounded program of public education for children from prekindergarten through grade twelve. In addition to basic instructional programs, the District offers special education, gifted and talented, bilingual/ESL, remedial, college preparatory, career and technical programs, and an international baccalaureate program. The District is fully accredited by the Texas Education Agency (TEA). A high degree of professionalism exists among our employees, and an on-going recognition of student and staff excellence contributes to this environment. The instructional program is geared toward having the student meet or exceed grade level expectations. Emphasis is placed on higher level thinking skills, including research methodologies and independent, complex and critical thinking skills. Deerwood Elementary School attracts highly qualified personnel because of its commitment to excellence.

Humble ISD’s comprehensive needs assessment shows continued growth is needed in student academic performance to reach Exemplary status district-wide. In order to address this need, we must employee, train, and retain highly qualified and motivated staff. To ensure limited disruption to instruction, it is vital that we provide a safe and secure environment and a welcoming culture and climate for all stakeholders. Our school's comprehensive needs assessment identified the following specific needs for our campus.

• TAKS and DBA scores indicate a need for improvement in the Reading areas of critical thinking and analysis for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students.

• TAKS and DBA scores indicate a need for improvement in Reading and Math for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students for the Hispanic subgroup.
