Wylie CLAAS

(Creating Leaders and Advocates for Schools)

Wylie ISD parents and community members are invited to participate in a yearlong journey that will give you an opportunity to study the internal operations of Wylie ISD up close. Over the course of a school year, you will meet with administrators and school board members, covering a variety of topics from curriculum, teaching and learning, budgets, testing, personnel and much more. Most importantly you will have the opportunity to interact with the leaders and decision makers of Wylie ISD.

The program consists of eight sessions held once a month from September through April at locations all over the school district – including schools, the transportation center, the stadium, and the educational service center (ESC).

The first session will be held on Wednesday, September 17th. All sessions after that will be held on the second Wednesday of each month from 9:00 a.m. to Noon. A light breakfast will be available at 8:45 a.m.

This opportunity is more than just a “sit and get” program. Wylie ISD CLAAS will provide interaction with students and teachers, tours of district facilities, dialogue with administrators, and district personnel, and opportunities to see firsthand how the district works. For your investment of time, you will be rewarded with a wealth of knowledge about Wylie ISD and a greater appreciation for educators.

Goals for Wylie ISD CLAAS:

1. Provide parents and community members an opportunity to gain firsthand knowledge about Wylie ISD.
2. Build capacity and advocacy with parents and community members in order to promote and support Wylie ISD’s mission and goals.
3. Create an appreciation for the day to day work in a learning organization.
4. Have fun learning with others!
