What happened: Midland ISD earned a C rating with an overall score of 72 in 2025, up from a 70 in 2024 and a 66 in 2023, on the Texas Education Agency’s (TEA) recently released accountability ratings. The district made gains in student achievement, school progress, and closing the gaps.

Why it matters: The A–F scores show where schools are improving and where challenges remain. TEA measures three areas: student performance, year-over-year growth, and support for disadvantaged student groups.

Go deeper: The number of A and B schools doubled from seven in 2023 to 14 in 2025, while D and F schools dropped from 16 to nine. Only one school remains F-rated this year. In all, 24 schools improved or maintained their scores compared to 2023.
