This document summarizes the Texas STaR Chart data for Little Elm High School from 2006-2007 to 2008-2009. It shows that the school has averaged between developing and advanced levels in most areas over the past three years but was consistently at an advanced level for infrastructure for technology and leadership. The main weakness is in educator preparation and development where it has averaged in the developing category. Going forward, the school aims to push two areas into the target technology range, continue building infrastructure, increase collaboration, set a clear vision, and offer training on new technologies with the goal of increasing student engagement.
