Assessment, Research, Evaluation, and Analytics (A.R.E.A.)
Mission
To enhance student learning and performance by providing the tools necessary to transform the District from one that is “data rich, information poor” to a “data-driven, decision-making” institution while maintaining a high level of integrity in the administration of assessments, research-based practices, program evaluation, and accountability reporting.
Department Purpose
We will provide leadership and guidance to District stakeholders so that the Ysleta Independent School District (YISD) meets state and federal accountability as well as comply with state and federal requirements.
Annually, we will collaborate with District stakeholders in order to evaluate program effectiveness and identify best practices to increase opportunities for student success so that the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) scores increase within each student group.
