FW: Student Supports Division Newsletter - August 2024 - Project DIVERSE

Saturday, 3 August 2024

See below on update on discipline/restorative practices/mental heath. There isn’t a lot of
data in the literature on the effectiveness of restorative practices although I like the
idea- likely means different things to different people and as always- the devil is in the
details. MDB

A Message from the Director
Dear Fellow Educators,
As we gear up for the upcoming school year, filled with anticipation and enthusiasm, the
Student Supports division has curated an array of programs, trainings, and initiatives
designed to empower ESCs and LEAs in preparing for a successful 2024-2025 academic year.
We invite you to delve into the wealth of resources offered by our dedicated student
supports, student discipline and mental health teams.
In the spirit of new beginnings, I am thrilled to share some personal news with all of
you. After close to two fulfilling years as the division director, I have made the
bittersweet decision to resign from my position at TEA. This move will herald the start of
an exciting adventure as the Superintendent of Schools for the Kwajalein Schools in the
Marshall Islands.
Serving the 5.5 million students of Texas has been a profound honor, and I am immensely
proud to have had the privilege of collaborating with such a talented team of directors
including Hank Weikert, Julie Wayman, and Dr. Gaye Lang. The impactful work being
spearheaded by our division, spanning initiatives such as the Safe and Supportive School
Program, Community Partnership grant, Stronger Connections Grant, Project AWARE, Mental
and Behavioral Health Resources, Statewide Partnerships, Restorative Practices, and
Chapter 37 Training and Resource Supports, continues to make a positive difference in
schools across Texas.
As I embark on this new chapter, I am filled with gratitude for the invaluable experiences
and relationships cultivated during my time here. Please know that I am only a message
away if you need any assistance or wish to connect before my departure. It has been an
absolute pleasure working alongside each and every one of you.
Wishing you continued success and progress in all your endeavors.
Dr. Blakey

San Marcos CISD has utilized their partnership with the City of San Marcos, Hays County,
and Texas State University to support their MTSS for school mental health. This
collaboration named the Core 4, has supported San Marcos CISD by training over 336 school
community members using various evidence-based programs like Youth Aware of Mental Health

Community Partnerships
Hearne ISD is the Community Partnerships Grant spotlight district for the month of August.
Hearne Independent School District is a rural 2A school district located about twenty-five
miles north of Texas A&M University. The district serves approximately 900 students
across three campuses and is largely economically disadvantaged, with 95.5% of students
falling into this category.
Historically, the district faced challenges in fostering positive relations with families,
resulting in limited support and involvement from the community. However, the district has
made significant strides in building partnerships with families and the broader community,
and it has expanded its services for students.
Hearne ISD has established the Hearne ISD Community Partners Committee comprised of
district and community stakeholders who collaboratively plan events to engage the
community. The district also frequently surveys the community seeking feedback about their
perception of and access to various programs. A number of Town Hall meetings were also
held last school year to share the state of affairs in Hearne ISD and receive in-person
feedback. These efforts have helped repair and improve the relationship between families,
the community, and the school district.
In addition to informal partnerships with local businesses and community members, Hearne
ISD has several formal agreements with organizations to support student growth
academically, socially, and emotionally. Some of these organizations are Big Brother Big
Sister of Brazos Valley, Texas A&M College of Education, Texas A&M Health Science
Center, Baylor School of Journalism, Public Relations, and News Media, and Tarleton State
University.
As a result of Hearne ISD's proactive outreach and community involvement, students
have access to a wider range of resources and opportunities, contributing to their overall
success in school and beyond. Families have expressed greater satisfaction with the
educational experience, noting increased communication and involvement in their
children's learning journey. The effort by Hearne ISD and its community partners
underscores their commitment to fostering a supportive and nurturing the educational
environment for all students.
Safe and Supportive School Program
As LEAs prepare for the new school year, the SSSP team that serves the campus should be
finalizing improvements to the SSSP plans for each campus they serve. The SSSP team should
be making data-based decisions to improve school climate, coordinating with other teams
that serve the campus to align MTSS processes, ensuring that team members have completed
behavioral threat assessment training, determining the training for staff and students on
identifying and reporting concerning behavior, reviewing SSSP data from previous years to
improve school safety, and supporting the School Safety and Security Committee with
planning and implementation of the campus multihazard emergency operation plan and safety
training for school staff. Resources that support the development and implementation of
the SSSP can be found on the Safe and Supportive Schools

Stronger Connections
We are excited for the 24-25 SY and to officially launch the first implementation year of
the Stronger Connections Grant! During this school year, awardees will continue to utilize
effective local advisory committees, implement climate and culture surveys using a suite
of research-based best practices, receive training on the Student Support Framework (SSF)-
including a level-set on student and staff safety, supportive discipline, mental and
behavioral health and wellbeing, and physical health and wellness, prepare for SSF
diagnostics, launch parent and family engagement efforts, and so much more!  As we prepare
for a BUSY school year ahead, we also want to reflect on the past 6 months of hard work.
Districts finalized grant negotiations, established local advisory committees, attended
the April roadshow with the Texas Center for Students Supports, heard from approved
vendors during TCSS’ virtual vendor fair, and participated in two quarterly submissions of
their Fidelity of Implementation (FOI) tool. In quarter 4, we had 100% participation in
the FOI! Our data team at TEA has created an interactive dashboard that ESC SCG leads will
utilize in their FOI check-ins with districts this next school year.
