Crowley Independent School District
Grades K–125/10
25 schools Rating range: 28 / 10

Crowley ISD is a district in transition, characterized by robust financial health and top-tier vocational programming (CTE) balanced against uneven academic consistency across its campuses. While its elementary portfolio contains several high-performing 'destination' schools, the middle school tier shows signs of distress with lower ratings and identified gaps in mathematics proficiency. The district maintains solid community support as evidenced by successful bond-funded modernizations and proactive security upgrades, yet it currently functions as a 'split' district where academic outcomes vary significantly depending on the specific feeder pattern.
