TEA released 2023 Accountability Ratings recently after being held up in court for nearly 2 years.
Texas provides annual academic accountability ratings to its public school districts, charters and schools. The ratings are based on performance on state standardized tests; graduation rates; and college, career, and military readiness outcomes. The ratings examine student achievement, school progress, and whether districts and campuses are closing achievement gaps among various student groups.
Garrison ISD is pleased with this rating as the state continues to change the parameters in which we are graded. We will continue to strive to be a model district for the community. We are thankful for our teachers and all they pour into the students at Garrison ISD.
Parent Informational Meeting!
May is going to busy! Mark your calendars!
