GCISD ‘Recognized’ District
Both the elementary and secondary schools in the Glasscock County Independent School District achieved Recognized status in the 2007 Texas Education Agency Accountability Ratings, with at least 75 percent passing the state standard. Both schools were also Recognized in 2006.
Curriculum/Testing Coordinator Misty Kinnibrugh told the school board Aug. 13 that only 20 percent of school districts across the state earned the top two ratings of Exemplary (90 percent passing) or Recognized.
Kinnibrugh said GCISD is one of only five Recognized districts in Region 18. The others are: Grady, Marathon, San Vicente (Big Bend Park) and Balmorhea.
