IDEA Public Schools recognized as top performing district

ODESSA, Texas (KOSA) - IDEA Public Schools has been recognized by the Educational Results Partnership (ERP), a non-profit organization that applies data science to accelerate student success, as a top-performing district in Texas on the annual “Honor Roll” list.

The district, including IDEA Yukon College Preparatory, earned the “Star” designation honor list for student performance on the STAAR tests.

This is the ninth year that ERP has completed the Honor Roll, which recognizes top public schools, school districts, and charter schools that have outperformed their peers in closing achievement gaps, particularly among higher-poverty and historically disadvantaged student populations.

The recognition is presented in collaboration with the Texas Business Leadership Council (TBLC).

In total, 835 schools in Texas made the Honor Roll, or approximately 12 percent of the schools in the state. The designation is based on STAAR testing results provided by the TEA over the last four years. Schools and districts comprehensively performed above the mean at least 80 percent of the time for all cohorts of students served and for all grade levels served. The star ranking was given to schools and districts with greater than, or equal to 33 percent of students designated as socioeconomically disadvantaged.
