Open the guide ↗RESEARCH WITH CONFIDENCE
Go Beyond a Single Score
Your priorities deserve more than a ranking. Start with the facts, then ask the questions that matter to you.
Understand the reports
Read the reporting year, measures and context in TEA school report cards. Use several sources; a single score is only one part of your research.
Explore your priorities
Ask about programs, electives, transportation, after-school options, accessibility and enrollment. Direct student-specific questions to the school.
Hear a local experience
A homeowner’s experience can add perspective. Ask when they attended or lived in the area; experiences are personal and can change.
