IDEA Public Schools is proud to announce that 102 of our elementary and middle schools are ranked among the best in Texas according to U.S. News & World Report. IDEA is home to 47 elementary schools that earned the U.S. News Best Elementary Schools distinction, and 55 middle schools that earned the U.S. News Best Middle Schools distinction.
“Setting the foundation at an early age by providing the best elementary and middle school education is where the journey to and through college starts,” said Jeffrey Cottrill, Ed.D. Superintendent and CEO of IDEA Public Schools. “We are extremely proud of the work that we are doing at IDEA Public Schools to prepare our students for a successful and bright future.”
Scoring was almost entirely rooted in students’ academic performance on state assessments in mathematics and reading proficiency/ reading performance. The elementary and middle school rankings are based almost exclusively on state assessments, with student-teacher ratios applied to break ties in the overall score.
