17.A. Awarded LASO Cycle 4 Presenter: Daron Worrell Description: Snyder ISD has been conditionally granted funding through the Learning Acceleration Support Opportunities (LASO 4) grant program. The awarded funds support the implementation of Teacher Preparation Mentorship and Teacher Preparation Residency pathways designed to strengthen instructional capacity, improve teacher retention, and build a sustainable grow-your-own teacher pipeline. This grant builds upon systems established under LASO 3, including instructional coaching structures, data-driven PLC processes, mentor training, and targeted academic supports. The continuation and expansion of these systems will further enhance Tier 1 instruction and support improved student growth outcomes aligned to district accountability goals. Final approval and implementation planning are underway, with mentor selection, residency placement, and progress monitoring structures to follow. Attachments: ( 1 ) Laso cycle 4 3/2/2026 at 4:42 PM
