On Tuesday, Superintendent Mike Miles said students 'rose to the challenge' and that results far exceeded their expectations for year one growth.
Houston ISD Superintendent Mike Miles said 2024 STAAR results show students achieved one of the best academic growth years that the district has ever experienced.
"So, how did we do? Third through eighth grade STAAR exams, it's very similar to end-of-course exams in high school. Our kids did great. Our teachers did great," Miles said during the conference. "They achieved one of the best academic growth years that the district has ever experienced. The NES schools posted even higher gains than the district."
"The gap is still large. We have a huge achievement gap in our district, but we're narrowing it, which is really good," he said. "The whole district did well, but our minority students did even better closing the gap. These results far exceed expectations for year one growth. I knew we would get results, this level of growth even I didn't expect."
