Tison Middle School: the mover's briefing

What we publish vs. what you verify

TEA 2026: B (82), up from D (68) in 2025 — the single biggest campus jump in the corridor’s 2026 cycle. Campus-level grades for every corridor district, and the three limits of a letter grade, are on the 2026 TEA ratings page. Joe M. Tison Middle School is the reason Weatherford ISD’s letter grade moved: a fourteen-point, two-letter climb in one cycle. If your address zones here, the 2026 file reads very differently from the 2025 one — worth knowing before you cross it off a list.

We publish structure and the state’s own results — not ratings-site scores or teacher chatter, which lag and churn. The verification that actually protects you: confirm the zoned campus of the exact address with Weatherford ISD, in writing, before your option period ends — the district publishes an address-lookup tool and the official boundary maps on wisd.net; use it per address, per year, as boundaries adjust with growth. Enrollment follows residence, so a lease secures a campus the same as a deed.

The money side of this campus’s district: Weatherford ISD’s published school rate is 1.0342% on the 2024–25 stack — the $140K homestead exemption saves ~$1,448/yr against it — and the district has already adopted $0.9342 for 2026–27, a full dime lower (~$1,308/yr of exemption value once it applies).
