Assessments and Accountability

We’re proud to share that Santa Fe ISD has earned a “B” rating for 2024 and 2025 under the Texas Education Agency’s (TEA) updated accountability system.

This rating reflects the district’s continued commitment to academic excellence, student growth, and creating a supportive learning environment.

The TEA accountability system evaluates schools based on several STAAR testing factors, including student achievement, progress, and efforts to close learning gaps. A “B” rating means our school is performing above average and meeting high standards in these areas. SFISD has also seen significant growth in CTE (Career and Technical Education) and CCMR (College, Career, Military Readiness) performance.

SFISD is grateful for the hard work of our students, staff, and families in helping us reach this milestone. Your support plays a vital role in our success, and we look forward to building on this momentum in the year ahead.

If you have any questions or would like to learn more about the rating system, feel free to reach out or visit the TEA website. 🔗https://txschools.gov/?lng=en
