Students with Teacher

For the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the Texas Education Agency (TEA) released its accountability ratings for Texas school districts and campuses on Aug. 15. Texas schools are rated on an “A through F” scale based on three criteria: student achievement, school progress, and closing the gaps. This year, schools that received a rating below a “C” were considered “Not Rated,” in alignment with Senate Bill 1365, passed in 2021. Districts and campuses with scores of 90-100 received an “A,” followed by 80-89 for a “B,” and 70-79 for a “C.” “Not Rated” schools scored below a 70.

Chapel Hill ISD received a district accountability grade of “B” for the 2021-2022 school year, an overall “Met Standard Rating.” The district received a performance score of 85, consistent with the previous year’s (2019 was the most recent rating) 85 score. Schools and districts were labeled Not Rated: Declared State of Disaster for 2020 and 2021.

“This rating is a direct result of everyone in our district working as a team to help our students recover from the academic impact of COVID-19,” Executive Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment Dr. Joshua Tremont said. “Our work continues: striving for an ‘A’ district.” Dr. Tremont continues to say “the announcement reinforces our internal analysis of our progress since 2019. We are already using the data to make informed action plans for the benefit of all students.”

Chapel Hill ISD earned five academic distinctions in 2021-22.
