    Supporting the Priorities Shaping Texas Schools

    Texas schools are advancing MTSS, aligning STAAR results with intervention, and implementing new SB 11 school safety requirements. Branching Minds brings these initiatives together in one connected platform.

    • Strengthen MTSS implementation across every school
    • Turn STAAR results into proactive, aligned intervention
    • Connect academic, behavior, attendance, and student support data
    • Meet new SB 11 threat assessment requirements, working alongside your Sentinel system

    A Unified Platform for Texas Schools

    Branching Minds gives Texas educators one connected platform to identify student needs, coordinate supports, strengthen collaboration, and connect data across every school.
