With nearly 80,000 students in 80 elementary schools, 24 middle schools and 6^th grade centers, 13 high schools and 27 special campuses, Fort Worth ISD enjoys a diverse student population and strong community partnerships. Under the leadership of Superintendent Melody Johnson and the Board of Education, the District is undergoing a series of initiatives that will redesign, transform and revitalize Fort Worth ISD Schools. We believe these initiatives are strong, positive steps toward achieving the goal of becoming the best urban school district in the nation.

Through our strategic plan, our expectation is that all Fort Worth ISD students will:

• be actively engaged as learners in rigorous curriculums;
• attend schools that are caring and supportive learning communities;
• be known by teachers in a personalized environment that meets individual needs;
• benefit from highly competent teachers who are held accountable to rigorous standards; and
• graduate well prepared for post-secondary education and gainful employment and be citizens that make a contribution to Fort Worth and the nation.
