– The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has released the 2009 accountability ratings for all state school districts.
As expected, the Commerce ISD received an academically unacceptable rating. As reported, the low rating is a result of the student dropout rate, where one student was inadvertently enrolled at two campuses due to coding issues, resulting in the student being identified as a dropout at Commerce Middle School. CISD officials are appealing the decision.

Of the 10 other school districts in Hunt County, Quinlan ISD was the only other district to receive an academically unacceptable rating. 42 of the 44 schools in the county were given an acceptable rating or higher.
As a district overall, Celeste, Lone Oak, Wolfe City and Dodd City in Fannin County were the only districts in the region to receive exemplary marks, the best possible rating from TEA.
TEA's accountability rating system is to evaluate how well districts across the state are educating students. The ratings are primarily based on student scores on the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) exams, dropout rates and completion rates.
