According to the Lone Star Governance Board Evaluation and Quarterly Progress Tracker, the Quitman ISD board’s visions and goals scores “have remained the same,” said Superintendent Chris Mason. However, their progress and accountability score dropped slightly, as they had a few emergency meetings since the last evaluation.

Mason said that “even if it’s not our fault” that they had to meet, it counts against them for efficiency ratings. Their current overall score is a 79; Mason assured board members and spectators that most districts “run anywhere from 40s to 50s,” so he said that “we’re very proud of that 79… what they’re telling us is that that board is functioning at a very high level.”

Mason said that QISD is expected to go to an even higher score of 91 by next quarter.
