The Plano Independent School District currently operates three pre-schools, forty-one elementary schools, twelve middle schools, five high schools, three senior high schools, and six special programs centers. These seventy schools are attended by approximately 55,000 students who live in Plano, Allen, Dallas, Murphy, Parker, and Richardson.
For the 2009-2010 school year, Plano ISD was rated recognized by the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Thirty-four of its campuses received exemplary ratings, twenty-six received recognized ratings, four received academically acceptable ratings and six were not rated. The percentage of Plano ISD students passing the 2009-2010 Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) was somewhat higher than for all Texas schools.
Ten Plano ISD schools are attended by students living either in the northwest Dallas suburbs or the far north Dallas area profiled on this website. As shown below, five of these campuses were rated exemplary by the TEA based on their 2008-2009 school year performances, three were rated recognized, and two were rated academically acceptable.
TAKS scores and other performance information for the 2008-2009 school year for each campus are available by clicking on the campus name. This information for the 2009-2010 school year will be posted on these campus pages when it is published by the TEA in late-November.
