• A quality teacher in every classroom, especially in Austin's Highest-Needs Schools
• Improved student learning at all schools and for all students
• Professional growth for teachers
• Increased retention rates among AISD teachers and principals

During the 2009-10 school year, 5 additional campuses will join AISD REACH. bringing the total number of schools participating in the pilot to 16. While still in its early stages, this pilot has become a laboratory for teacher and principal innovation and leadership.
