Texas Schools Rated A to F | Amarillo News

from Amarillo News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Texas just released its annual school ratings—here’s what you need to know: schools get letter grades from A to F based on three key areas. Student Achievement looks at test scores, graduation rates, and college/career readiness. School Progress tracks academic growth year over year and compares schools with similar student populations. Closing the Gaps zeroes in on equity, measuring how well schools support underrepresented groups like low-income students, students of color, and those with special needs. The final grade is 70% based on the higher score between Achievement and Progress, plus 30% from Closing the Gaps. It’s a complex but comprehensive system designed to spotlight where schools shine—and where they need help to ensure every student thrives.
