The statewide education organization Children At Risk has published its second edition of the Texas School Guide. The publication is designed to help parents navigate the public school system. The guide ranks all school districts across Texasand assigns grades ranging from A to F. Using data provided by the Texas Education Agency, the school districts were evaluated by student achievement, campus performance and growth.
Among school districts in the KETR service area, the best-performing districts were Lone Oak, Dodd City, McKinney, Caddo Mills, Ector and Roxton. The poorest-performing districts locally were Terrell, Yantis, Grand Saline and Community.
