Katy ISD earned an overall A rating (91) from the Texas Education Agency’s A-F Accountability Rating System, the district said.

Katy ISD is one of 396 districts, and the second-largest district, out of more than 1,000 districts in Texas, to earn an A rating. Additionally, Katy ISD campuses also received letter grades that include:

• 37 campuses earned an overall A
• 26 campuses earned an overall B
• 6 campuses earned an overall C

The TEA’s A-F rating system is similar to the letter grades that students receive for their academic assignments. The agency uses the accountability system to evaluate the academic performance of Texas public schools. Its overall rating is based on three domains, which include:

• Student Achievement—evaluates performance across all subjects for students, on both general and alternate assessments; College, Career and Military Readiness (CCMR) indicators; and graduation rates. Katy ISD earned a 92 in this domain.
• School Progress—measures district and campus outcomes in two areas that include the number of students that grew at least one year academically (or are on track) as measured by the STAAR results and the achievement of all students relative to districts or campuses with similar economically disadvantaged percentages. Katy ISD earned a 92 in this domain.
• Closing the Gaps—uses disaggregated data to demonstrate differentials among racial/ethnic groups, socioeconomic backgrounds and other factors. Katy ISD earned a 96 in this domain.

Superintendent Ken Gregorski said the “A+” in the Katy ISD logo is a reminder of the education the district’s teachers and staff deliver to students.

“The district’s TEA accountability rating reflects the hard work of our educators, their dedication to all learners, and demonstrates our entire staff and community’s commitment to educational excellence,” Gregorski said.
