The academic performance score provides a quick way to determine approximately where a school district's or school's student academic performance ranks among the performance of students in other Texas districts and schools. School districts and campuses with combined State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) and college readiness indexes ranked in the top ten percent of Texas school districts and schools are awarded an academic performance score of 10, districts and schools with combined academic performance indexes in the ninth decile receive a score of 9, and so on.

Sundown ISD was joined by 11.9 percent of all Texas K-12 school districts in being recognized by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) with an accountability grade of A, the top grade awarded in 2018 to school districts.

Sundown ISD profile Sundown Independent School District operates an elementary school, a junior high school and a high school. These three schools are attended by approximately 600 students.

Sundown ISD's 2018 TEA STAAR component scaled score is 91. As is further explained in the Texas Education Agency 2018 Accountability Manual, the STAAR scaled score is calculated by first adding equal weightings of the percentage of assessments on which students’ performance mastered grade level, met grade level and approached grade level, dividing the sum by 3 and rounding it to the nearest whole percentage. This raw STAAR raw component score is then adjusted or “scaled” by using a conversion table to align accountability letter grades and scores of Texas public school districts and campuses.

As indicated in the 2018 TEA STAARS scores graph (right) and shown in the Sundown ISD schools table (below), two Sundown ISD campuses attained TEA STAAR scaled scores between 90 and 100 and one campus had a STAAR scaled scores between 80 and 89. The 2018 accountability rating for all Sundown ISD schools is Met Standard, the TEA's highest campus rating.
