body
Summary of Texas Education Code Sections 39A.101, 39A.104, and 39A.105: Campus Turnaround Plans (TAP)
If a campus is rated unacceptable for two consecutive years, the Texas Education Commissioner orders the campus to develop and submit a Campus TAP.
Development and approval:
• The Targeted Improvement Plan (TIP) is revised into a two-year TAP.
• The previously held TIP public meetings fulfill the TAP public hearing requirements.
• The plan must be approved by the board in a public hearing before submission to the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
• Once approved, the plan is implemented without further board action.
Key requirements of the plan:
• Campus restructuring and reform strategies
• Academic program details (instructional methods, school schedule, promotion criteria, special population support, etc.)
• Stakeholder feedback (parents, teachers, and campus committees)
• Budget and staffing plan
• District charter conversion (if applicable)
Turnaround Plan Campuses
1. High School Ahead Academy Middle School (MS)
2. Liberty High School (HS)
