ANCHORS

• RACIAL EQUITY & CULTURAL RESPONSIVENESS

Our district is one of diverse backgrounds, ideas, and stories, and our perspective help define us. We believe that a diverse staff at all levers of the organization promotes effective and relevant decision-making in support of student success. Prioritizing racial equity and cultural responsiveness are cornerstones for closing achievement gaps and ensuring equitable outcomes for all students.

• COMPREHENSIVE ACCOUNTABILITY

Dallas ISD promotes ownership of our work at all levels of the organization and work to build independent thinkers and collaborative teams.

• RESPONSIBLE USE OF RESOURCES

Dallas ISD strategically evaluates and aligns its resources (human capital, budget, facilities, and materials) to support achievement at all levels of the organization.

• COLLABORATION

No one person has all solutions; thus, collaboration is a key contributor to the success of any endeavor. We challenge all stakeholders (employees, teachers, parents, and community members) to share responsibility for improving outcomes for students.
