House Bill 3 Goals and Annual Targets
In accordance with legislation in Texas’ House Bill 3 (HB3), Georgetown ISD’s Board of Trustees adopted HB3 Goals and Annual Targets in January of 2021. These goals are specific to the areas of:
- Student performance on 3rd grade Reading STAAR,
- Student performance on 3rd grade Math STAAR, and
- Student qualification as College, Career or Military Ready by graduation.
HB3 goals are established to be attained by the end of the 2024-2025 school year. The GISD Board also adopted annual targets for each of the three goals, including a target each year for each student group. The Board of Trustees receives updates on progress toward these goals and targets in Board Workshops.
