new superintendant and principal - no longer is this the same rated school. Dew has dropped the ball.
—Submitted by a parent
A few teachers could be more parent/ child friendly in the lower grades. The principal, and guidance counselor are great. I hear great things about the middle school's teachers and sports program. I think our students are ahead of most districts around the area in learning. Dew is a good school.

—Submitted by a parent
What a wonderful district! The staff and superintendent are caring and concerned. Great discipline and academics! Recognized by TEA!
—Submitted by a parent
Dew ISD is a small district with a fantastic staff. The principal and teachers really love every student and the students work hard for them in return. The school's test scores are always high and there are very few discipline incidences. Thank you, Ms. Anderson and staff at Dew I.S.D.
—Submitted by A happy parent, a parent
The academic programs are not up to par and could be better if we recruited better coaches and we could really use a new superintendant/princepal that really cared about the kids
—Submitted by concerned member of the community, a staff
All the teachers are very involved in every aspect of knowing the child and helping the child in any way possible. The teachers here go way beyond their duty as teachers. The school is almost homelike in its setting and there's a very positive feel about the school when you enter the doors there. We lack in parent involvement but the parents that do participate in school functions do a wonderful job. The administration and teachers both firmly believe in treating the students like children and let them all be themselves with more positive feedback on their behavior than negative which is very important in children developing. We are truely blessed having such fine teachers and administration.

Texas uses Accountability Ratings to indicate the overall performance of each school and district. The ratings are based on TAKS test results, dropout rates for grades 7 and 8 and school completion rates for grades 9 through 12. Schools and districts rated under standard accountability procedures are designated as Exemplary, Recognized, Academically Acceptable or Academically Unacceptable. Schools and districts rated under alternative education accountability (AEA) procedures are designated as either AEA: Academically Acceptable or AEA: Academically Unacceptable.
