Parents are encouraged to visit TXschools.org to view online report cards designed to be useful tools to see how a school or district is doing in different areas. The report cards spotlight specific strengths, in addition to any challenges, so that we can work to assure the needs of all students are being met. Parents can search by district or school name and compare the district's or school's performance to others in their area.

Federal Report Cards
The U.S. Department of Education requires each state to publish an annual report card with specific district and campus-level data. Find the Federal Report Card for the state of Texas, Pearland ISD and individual campuses.
School Report Cards
The school report card (SRC) combines accountability ratings, data from the Texas Academic Performance Reports (TAPR), and financial information to give a broad view of campus performance. Available for each campus in Texas, the SRC is intended to inform parents and guardians about a school's individual characteristics and its academic performance. Find the School Report Card for any campus through TEA.
The Department of Testing provides leadership in all aspects of the state and federal accountability systems for the purpose of measuring student progress.

2023-2024 District Annual Report
Section 1: Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR)
The TAPR contains PEIMS and student assessment data for Pearland ISD and for each Campus for the 2023-2024 school year. Reports for previous years are available at TEA Performance Reporting.
Section 2: PEIMS Financial Standard Report
The PEIMS Financial Standard Reports are prepared by the Texas Education Agency's Division of School Finance and include financial data (including revenue and expenditures) for the district and each Campus. The most recent Financial Actual Report is from the 2022-2023 school year. More information can be found on TEA's School Funding page and Pearland ISD's Financial Transparency page.
Section 3: Accreditation Status
The Texas Education Agency accredits public schools in Texas at the district level for grades K-12. The Accreditation Status is based on the academic accountability rating and financial ratings from the Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas. A district must be accredited by the state to operate as a public school.
Pearland ISD received an "Accredited" status for the 2022-2023 school year, the most recent year in which accreditation statuses were awarded by the Texas Education Agency.
* District accreditation statuses for the 2023-24 and 2024-25 school years have not been issued as the issuance of the A-F ratings under the 2023 and 2024 rules are pending and subject to change.
Section 4: Campus Performance Objectives
Campus Performance Objectives, included in each Campus Improvement Plan, measure each student group's progress toward meeting those objectives. The Campus Performance Objectives for the 2024-2025 school year were approved at the November 12, 2024 school board meeting.
Section 5: Violent or Criminal Incidents on Campuses
The Report on Violent or Criminal Incidents on Campuses includes the number, rate, and type of violent or criminal incidents that occurred on each district campus to the extent permitted by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). To comply with FERPA and TEA’s masking requirements, and to conceal the identity of student(s) involved, Pearland ISD will not report on violent or criminal incidents due to the small number of occurrences in the 2023-2024 school year. School violence prevention and intervention policies and procedures can be found in the Pearland ISD Student Code of Conduct.
Section 6: Student Performance in Postsecondary Institutions
Data compiled by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) reports student performance during the first year of enrollment after high school graduation for students who graduated in 2022 and attended a Texas public four-year or two-year institution in the 2022-2023 year.
* An updated report of the Class of 2023 is expected to be released by THECB in Spring 2025.
Section 7: Progress Toward Board-adopted HB 3 Goals
HB 3 requires school boards to adopt and monitor plans for: Early Childhood Literacy, Early Childhood Mathematics Proficiency, and College, Career, and Military Readiness (CCMR)
The goals in these plans set targets for the district, and also each campus and student group, over five years. Original goals were adopted by the school board in 2020 and are due to be revised Spring 2025. These goals will continue to be monitored and progress reported each year.
Section 8: TAPR Glossary
The TAPR Glossary provides definitions, describes methodologies, and lists sources for each tab in the TAPR system. Glosario de TAPR (available soon) provides the Spanish translation of the glossary.
