Texas just released its latest school report cards—same old story, mostly. A-F grades based on STAAR test scores give parents and businesses a snapshot of school performance, with 24% earning an A, 34% a B, and only 4% failing outright. Schools with five Fs in a row face serious consequences: state takeover or leadership overhaul—seen last year in Fort Worth and Beaumont. Critics say the system unfairly targets low-income, predominantly Hispanic and Black schools, while supporters argue it forces accountability. The grades are split into three parts: student achievement, progress over time, and closing gaps for underserved groups. Despite little change overall, the ratings remain a flashpoint in debates over equity and education effectiveness across the state.
