The Texas Education Agency released long-delayed 2022-2023 school accountability ratings on Thursday.
That lengthy delay began in 2023 when more than 100 Texas school districts, including Dallas and Richardson ISD, stopped the TEA from issuing the grades by suing the agency.
Districts argued they were unprepared for a change in the scoring benchmark, which updated rating standards. As a result, they said grades could be lower than a school’s previous scores, which would be unfair.
Dallas ISD received a C on the A-F scale. In the 2021-2022 school year, Dallas ISD scored a B, although the scoring was incomplete due to COVID-19. In the 2018-2019 school year, Dallas ISD received a B.
The ratings look at STAAR test scores students take every year beginning in third grade.
The ratings also consider a school’s progress over time and how it compares to other similar campuses and examines how a school closes learning gaps. It measures success of students with different racial and ethnic backgrounds and family incomes, among other criteria.
