The TEA also reported that Southside ISD’s Heritage Elementary is one of just two campuses in the entire state of Texas to soar from an F-rated campus to an A-rated school. “It’s just incredible to have a 36-point gain from a 59 to a 95 is unheard of. There are only two campuses in the state of Texas to do that; Heritage Elementary being one of them,” said Southside ISD Superintendent Mr. Rolando Ramirez. “They’ve just done an amazing job. They’ve taken it a step further and have shown our other campuses that anything is possible. Students were held to those high expectations and because of that, they were able to attain that A-rating.” All of Southside ISD’s other campuses taking the state assessment tests were elevated to B-ratings including Southside High School, Matthey Middle School, Losoya Middle School, Freedom Elementary, Pearce Elementary, and Gallardo Elementary.
