The Clear
Creek Independent School District is seeking
community members to participate in its
program, Interested Neighbors Staying
Informed on District Efforts, otherwise
known as INSIDE CCISD. This is the third
year the district is offering this unique
program to its citizens.
INSIDE CCISD
is an in-depth six-month leadership program
with monthly, two-hour sessions that begins
on January 30. This behind-the-scenes,
discovery program provides community members
who live or work in Clear Creek ISD the
opportunity to learn first-hand how the
district is addressing the challenges of a
rapidly growing school district. Tours,
demonstrations and school bus rides are just
part of the whole experience.
David Braun,
an aerospace coordinator with the Bay Area
Houston Economic Partnership and a Nassau
Bay City Councilman, participated in the
INSIDE CCISD program in 2006. He shared that
INSIDE CCISD helped him to see the “nuts and
bolts” of how Clear Creek ISD operates.
“I feel that
INSIDE allowed me to become more
knowledgeable in regards to my own
children’s education,” said Mary Van Baalen,
INSIDE CCISD graduate. “The program also has
enabled me to better participate in
conversations about the district with
others.”
Each monthly
session addresses a different area of the
district’s operations. The first meeting
will be an opportunity to meet fellow team
members and key administrators.
“INSIDE
offered me the opportunity to meet and learn
from district leadership,” said Michelle
Brookover, PTA president at Clear Lake City
Elementary and INSIDE CCISD graduate. “From
a tour of the new construction at Clear
Springs High School, to a workshop on how
school boards work, INSIDE invited us to
discover how this award-winning school
district successfully educates the leaders
of tomorrow.”
Most
importantly, INSIDE CCISD is an opportunity
for all our residents in our 13
municipalities to meet one another and
foster a neighborhood connection. To
sign-up, or to find out more information
about INSIDE CCISD, please call the Office
of Public Information at (281) 284.0020.
