What do students learn in LTISD?


Instruction in LTISD is aligned to the 

  • Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS)
    • This site will provide you with information on the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), which are the state standards for what students should know and be able to do. The State Board of Education (SBOE) has legislative authority to adopt the TEKS for each subject of the required curriculum. SBOE members nominate educators, parents, business and industry representatives, and employers to serve on TEKS review committees. The Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills Review by Subject area web page provides information regarding the SBOE’s process and current and previous reviews.  Subscribe to updates from TEA. 

  • Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB)
    • In 2015, Texas launched 60x30TX, the state's higher education strategic plan which aims to position Texas among the highest achieving states in the country and maintain its global competitiveness.

    • 60x30TX is entirely student-centered: its overarching goal is that 60 percent of young adults (25-34) in Texas will hold some type of postsecondary credential by 2030.

    • It also proposes that at least 550,000 students in that year will complete a certificate, associate, bachelor's, or master's from a Texas institution of higher education; graduates will have identifiable marketable skills regardless of major; and students (statewide) will not graduate with debt exceeding 60 percent of their first-year wages.

  • College, Career, and Military Prep
    • The Division of College, Career, and Military Preparation (CCMP) works to ensure that all Texas high school students have access to high-quality pathways to career and college.

  • English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS)
