New data shows Leander ISD outperformed state in some STAAR tests

Data for LISD shows that the district's approaches grade level scores outperformed the state in every subject in both 2025 and 2026.

Year-over-year, LISD's approaches grade level scores were the same or higher in every subject with the exception of:

• Third, sixth, seventh and eight grade math
• Third, fourth and sixth grade reading
• Eighth grade social studies

What they're saying

LISD officials reviewed its EOC accelerated instruction program during a June 4 board meeting, noting that in 2025-26 a variety of academic interventions were provided as necessary, including before- or after-school tutoring, flex times built into instructional days, EOC prep sessions and small group instruction.

At the middle school level, campuses utilized Student Success Facilitators, or SSF's, implemented double-blocked periods, and hosted "Super Saturdays" with targeted small group instruction from certified teachers.

This summer, LISD is planning more interventions including an EOC re-tester prep course, an Algebra I prep academy for rising ninth graders, a Logic League for rising third graders at Title One campuses, and asynchronous learning opportunities.

Something to note

Individual STAAR score reports are available to families through their school district's portal, or at www.texasassessment.gov using the unique access code provided by their student's school.
