Understanding the 8/10 Rating
With a rating of 8/10 (above average), Spring Branch Independent School District ranks among Texas’s above average-rated school systems. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in Texas’ STAAR grades 3–8 Reading & Math assessments (2023 school year).
