  • About OTI

    The Office of Transformation and Innovation (OTI) is on a mission to provide every student with a "best-fit" school that matches their specific interests, aspirations, and preferred learning styles. We pursue this work through four key departments and initiatives:

    Personalized Learning Department

    Personalized Learning (PL) is a one-size-fits-one instructional strategy used by campuses and educators throughout the district. The PL Department provides robust resources, training, and support to schools and practitioners to use this model. Visit dallasisd.org/personalizedlearning for more information.

    Centralized Enrollment Department

    With Dallas ISD's new Centralized Enrollment Department, finding the best-fit school for your child has never been easier. The Centralized Enrollment team hosts five enrollment offices known as "One Centers" throughout the district that provide a one-stop-shop for parents to learn about their wide variety of school choices, set up campus visits, and enroll in a school of their choice.
