The head of the Texas Education Agency is visiting Dallas Friday morning as 2024-2025 A-F ratings for Texas schools were released.

While eyes are on Fort Worth ISD amidst a potential state takeover, TEA Commissioner Mike Morath will be visiting Walnut Hill International Leadership Academy as part of a statewide A-F accountability tour.

Dallas ISD sees increase in rating

Dallas ISD boosted its overall rating from a C to a B in the 2024-2025 school year, according to the report.

According to the data from Dallas ISD:

• The number of A-rated schools doubled, going from 30 in the 2023-2024 school year to 60.
• The number of B-rated campuses increased from 71 to 103.
• The number of F-rated schools decreased from 24 to two. 

While Dallas ISD makes these strides, the TEA's attention is also on Fort Worth ISD.

Fort Worth ISD continues to make strides

FWISD also said it has seen significant improvements in its A-F ratings, cutting the number of failing schools by more than half.

According to the TEA's accountability ratings, for the 2024-2025 school year, FWISD also increased, from a D to a C.

It remains to be seen if that will prevent a state takeover of the district. Morath previously said a decision will be made in the fall.

FWISD Superintendent Karen Molinar said the district is making changes this school year to increase student outcomes—like extending the school year for certain campuses.

"The commissioner really needs to make a decision. It's not just around that 2023 score," Molinar said. "It really is about what changes are we putting in place as a large urban system to sustain this progress and actually accelerate it."

After visiting the two largest North Texas school districts, Morath will visit Houston ISD, then Northeast ISD in San Antonio. He does not plan on visiting FWISD on Friday.
