After 19 months of court challenges by several districts, the Texas Education Agency has released school accountability ratings for the 2022-23 school year. The 2023-24 rankings are still blocked pending the resolution of a second lawsuit.
No scores were released for 2019-20 and 2020-21 because of the pandemic and only partial ratings were released for the 2021-22 school year.
The ratings consider three categories including how well high schools prepare students for college.
Student Achievement and Student Progress counts for 70% of the overall grade with 30% based on how well students of all economic backgrounds are successful.
Wylie ISD received an overall rating of A, with 18,776 students enrolled for the 2022-23 school year and 28.6% of those listed as economically disadvantaged. WISD received an A for Student Achievement, a B for School Progress and an A for Closing the Gaps.
“Our results reinforce what we know to be true: students can attend any school in Wylie ISD and receive a high-quality education,” said April Cunningham, chief communications officer of WISD. “Our students continue to demonstrate impressive growth in their learning and development, consistently meeting and exceeding high expectations.”
