Houston Independent School District (HISD) students have shown improvement in their 2024 STAAR exam scores, particularly in elementary and middle school levels. A higher percentage of HISD students met or exceeded grade level expectations on most STAAR exams in grades 3 through 8, closing the gap with students across Texas, according to state-appointed Houston ISD Superintendent Mike Miles. Despite this improvement, the overall performance of Texas students on the STAAR exams has declined, particularly in math and science, illustrating the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on student learning. The Texas Education Agency noted that students from third to eighth grade have struggled to catch up in these subjects post-pandemic, as state results largely decline.
