Accountability ratings

Texas assigns ratings to districts and campuses that designate their performance in relation to the state's accountability system.

A-F ratings have not been released for the 2023-2024 school year. Some school districts sued the Texas Education Agency, arguing that a new automated scoring system may have impacted results on the state's reading test. The ratings won't be released until the case is resolved.
