         <title>Community Needs Assessment</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The community needs assessment was conducted because Christoval, Texas, is a growing community, but the school district struggles to meet the demand. Of the 1,021 school districts today in Texas, CISD is funded at the bottom quarter (<em>Christoval ISD</em>,2024). The school district also has transfer students from surrounding towns, which allows extra income for the school district and helps keep the class sizes consistent. The objective of the assessment is to help understand the need for a junior high school to be built and update facilities at CISD.</p>]]></description>
