How our 3 largest local school districts did on the 2025 Spring STAAR tests
AUSTIN (KXAN) — Central Texas' three most populous districts scored better on the Spring 2025 STAAR test's algebra and biology sections compared to the Spring 2024 tests, but worse on the English sections, according to data released Tuesday by the Texas Education Agency (TEA).

Due to the volume of data, KXAN looked at the STAAR EOC test group summaries for our three largest districts: Austin ISD, Leander ISD and Round Rock ISD.
Compared to last year's results, AISD students did worse on the English II test but were roughly in line with last year's English I results. LISD and RRISD did better than AISD on those sections; however, both experienced slight drops in their English I and II scores compared to 2024
AISD students also did better on the U.S. History portion. LISD students did worse than last year, but still performed better than AISD on the section. RRISD students scored about the same on history as they did in 2024.
Texas as a whole did better on biology than it did in 2024. AISD saw that improvement reflected in its scores. LISD and RRISD's scores in biology did not change significantly.
The LISD-RRISD similarities didn't carry over to algebra — AISD and LISD both improved on the section but RRISD did not.
