ROCKWALL, TX (Aug. 17, 2026) Rockwall ISD is celebrating an A-rating following the release of the 2026 district accountability ratings from the Texas Education Agency, a significant academic achievement, increasing its rating by four points in just two years.
Serving approximately 19,000 students across 26 campuses, Rockwall ISD’s increase from an 87 rating in 2024 to a 91 rating in 2026 reflects the commitment and dedication of our students, teachers, staff and families to academic excellence.
Everyone plays an important part in working together as a district to help students succeed.
There is more to celebrate! In addition to the District’s overall rating, Rockwall ISD more than doubled the number of distinctions earned from 13 in 2025 to 32 in 2026, including nine Closing the Gaps and eight Academic Growth distinctions. Distinctions recognize exceptional achievement in specific areas, including academic growth and closing achievement gaps, and earning 32 is something worth celebrating!
The District’s three high schools once again earned A ratings: Rockwall High School earned a 96, Rockwall-Heath High School earned a 95 and Rockwall Quest Academy earned a 92.
Superintendent Dr. John Villarreal said the A rating is a reflection of the outstanding teamwork of the Rockwall ISD School Board, staff, community, parents, and most importantly, the students.
“This work is intentional, meaningful, and forever important because every student deserves our very best in education,” said Dr. Villarreal. “A huge thank you to everyone who works together every day to make a difference for kids.”
