O'banion Middle

This school is a part of Garland Independent School District

Garland ISD is a solid, high-performing district characterized by its unique 'Choice of School' model and a heavy emphasis on specialized magnet and CTE pathways. With nearly a third of its campuses achieving top-tier ratings and its high schools serving as regional anchors, the district demonstrates strong academic results and infrastructure stability through successful bond-funded modernizations. While a performance gap exists between elite magnet programs and traditional neighborhood schools, and some growth-related overcrowding persists in areas like Rowlett, the district's proactive management of teacher retention and school safety maintains its standing as a stable and desirable educational organization.
