What grade does the state give the district ?

The Texas Education Agency scores districts and campuses with letter grades to give Texas families an idea of how well they are teaching students. School performance ratings can help parents decide which schools to enroll their kids in and help businesses decide which communities to invest in.

Why this matters

An “A” means the state views the school as showing exemplary performance; “B” means recognized performance; “C” is acceptable performance; a “D” is performance that needs improvement; and an “F” is unacceptable performance. Districts with schools that repeatedly fail could be at risk for a state takeover or other intervention. Critics of the system say districts in low-income communities tend to fare worse.

River Road ISD received a "C" rating

Overall 2024 Rating

Each school district and campus receives a rating based on three categories: student performance on state tests and, where applicable, graduation benchmarks; improvement in those scores; and how well schools are educating disadvantaged students.
