Design Team
Design Team
We actively engaged stakeholders from all over the district in developing our Journey of a Graduate. This collective vision articulates our community’s aspirations for each and every student in Belton ISD.
We invited multiple voices and perspectives to join our design team, a group of community members, students and staff, who shared ongoing input and together informed our Journey of a Graduate. Our design team met four times, with each meeting built upon the other.
