CORE COMMITMENT: CSISD will recruit, develop, and retain qualified and dedicated staff.

Background: CSISD is committed to attracting the highest quality faculty and staff members, We are blessed to be in a community like College Station that attracts many good teachers and staff members from other areas of Texas and the nation. CSISD annually hires a higher percentage of teachers with successful experience. Teaching positions in CSISD attract a large number of applicants, and we have a lower teacher turnover rate than the state. The 2013-2014 Texas Academic Performance Record indicates that the state turnover rate for teachers was 16.2 percent and the CSISD rate was 12.6 percent.

Once teachers and staff members arrive in CSISD we have a system of professional development that builds upon their knowledge base and helps provide the skills for success in the classroom. New Teacher University (NTU) is a system of professional development in instructional strategies, relationship building and what it takes to be successful in College Station.
