Navarro ISD is asking trustees to authorize a LASO Cycle 5 application that could support literacy tools, summer school and teacher preparation.
The district’s board action sheet lists those opportunities as potential uses of the state program, with applications due Dec. 1, 2026, at 5 p.m.

For Navarro students, the listed opportunities include early literacy intervention tools and support for the district’s current summer school program. The district also identifies two teacher preparation allotments: one for paid student teaching and another for clinical experience before alternative-route candidates become teachers of record.
Navarro says earlier LASO cycles helped it put reading and math instructional materials in place and sustain a full-time reading and language arts instructional coach. Its new proposal seeks permission for the superintendent or a designee to apply. The action sheet does not establish that trustees have approved the request or that the district has received a Cycle 5 award.
