Community Survey Information

As a crucial component of FBISD’s Vision 2030 initiative, the District proactively sought input from parents, staff and community members to better understand and address their highest aspirations for our learners.
From November 8 to November 19, interested individuals watched a student panel video and completed the online survey, contributing their insights and ideas to design, create and implement a strategic plan, spanning six years, which is rooted in a vision to learn. In the student panel video, FBISD students shared their learning experiences and expressed their hopes for the future, among other insightful topics.
