The Texas Education Agency released its 2019 state accountability ratings Thursday and for the first time all districts and campuses received a letter grade in the year-old “A-F” ratings.
When the letter grade system was rolled out last August, not all districts and campuses received a letter grade, but were deemed either met standard or did not meet standard.
For the school districts in Bowie, Nocona, Saint Jo and Prairie Valley this is their second year for an overall letter grade in the district and for campuses, while Gold-Burg Forestburg, Bellevue and Montague receive their first letter grades.
Within Texas there are approximately 1,200 school districts and charter schools. Statewide hundreds of districts and schools improved their overall ratings. Within the county the ratings were varied. Read the full story in the weekend Bowie News.

The City of Bowie reports an EXTREME HEAT WARNING will be in effect from 8 p.m. tonight until 8 p.m. tomorrow night. Please be careful.
