Frisco ISD is the largest district in our coverage area, and in the Texas Education Agency's 2026 accountability ratings it did something scale usually makes difficult: it posted no weak campus at all.

The district earned an A with an overall score of 91. Among its 75 rated campuses, 51 earned an A and 23 earned a B. One campus, Staley Middle School, came in at a C with a score of 75. No Frisco ISD campus received a D or an F.

The domains

Frisco scored 92 in student achievement, an A, and 90 in closing the gaps, also an A. School progress came in at 83, a B, with academic growth also at 83.

That pattern, very high achievement paired with a merely strong growth score, is common in districts that are already performing near the top of the scale, where there is less room left to demonstrate improvement.

The range

Lawler Middle School posted the district's highest score at 98, followed by Independence High School at 97 and Nelson Middle School at 96.

At the other end, Shawnee Trail Elementary and Christie Elementary earned B ratings with scores of 82 and 81.

What it means in a district this size

Frisco ISD enrolls 62,627 students across 76 schools. Districts of that size almost always contain at least one struggling campus, because the larger the system the more varied its neighborhoods and student populations.

The absence of a D or F campus anywhere in Frisco ISD is the most notable single fact in its 2026 report, and it is what separates this year's result from a simple high average.
