A school has made significant improvement in its academic ratings, jumping from an F to a B. The latest Texas Education Agency accountability ratings show the school earned an 89% score, just one point shy of an A. This improvement is attributed to years of focused work on academics, school culture, and family engagement.
The school's principal has led the effort for four years, prioritizing the education of the whole child, including academic, social, and emotional development.
Further details about the school's turnaround are available, including the principal's approach to improving the school's performance.
