A/B Celebrations
District campuses were graded this year by the Texas Education Agency's accountability
rating system, and 100% either met or exceeded state standards. In fact, 46 Garland ISD
schools earned an A or a B.
The district recognized top-performing campuses with special assemblies, celebration
banners and commemorative pins in the fall. Each campus received a celebration banner from
the Board of Trustees and Dr. López to display proudly by the school’s entrance. Students also
presented every campus employee a commemorative pin. Follow the hashtag #MadeTheGrade
on Twitter to view photos and videos of the A/B assemblies.
