DALLAS — An initiative to pump more resources into 21 Dallas Independent School District schools has taken off. And some principals say it’s paying off.
The district’s Imagine 2020 initiative began this school year at Pinkston, Lincoln and Madison high schools and campuses that feed into them. Under the plan, teachers receive more hands-on instruction. More staffers are on campus. Students get in-house tutoring. And there’s a bigger focus on community involvement and helping the neediest kids.
