Providing all students with the tools to be successful


The purpose of the Kerrville ISD is to educate all students to be successful and productive citizens in a way that meets parent and community expectations through continual improvement in curriculum and instruction, a safe and orderly learning environment, sound fiscal management, and leadership dedicated to excellence. 

Kerrville ISD delivers instructional programs and services that enhance the academic and personal potential of its students, resulting in successful graduates. 

EXEMPLARY!
KISD Rises to Highest District Rating

JumpJoy.jpgThe Kerrville Independent School District has reached the highest district rating assigned by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) of “Exemplary.”  Official results were released by TEA at 1PM on Friday, July 30, 2010.

Notably, all four elementary school campuses (Tom Daniels Elementary, Nimitz Elementary, Starkey Elementary, and Fred H. Tally Elementary), and B.T. Wilson Sixth Grade School are “Exemplary.”  Hal Peterson Middle School and Tivy High School are “Recognized.”  Hill Country High School is “Academically Acceptable,” which is the highest rating TEA allows for an alternative high school campus. 

Equally impressive is that student performance continues to improve across multiple subjects and grade levels.

District administrators are elated by the good news.  Says  KISD Superintendent, Dr. Dan Troxell, “We are so proud!  KISD’s Exemplary rating demonstrates the hard work of our students, teachers, faculty, and parents!  We all work together as a team for district and student success.” 

Specific results by campus, grade level, and subject will be released by KISD within the week outlining performance percentages and Commended Performance levels.  For more information, contact Deb Wells, Associate Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction, at (830)257-2200, ext. 238 or visit the TEA website at  http://www.tea.state.tx.us.
