Brazos Independent School District, formerly Wallis-Orchard Independent School District, is a public school district based in Wallis, Texas (USA). The district lies in two counties, Austin and Fort Bend. In addition to Wallis, the district also serves the city of Orchard.

History

In the 1970s Orchard ISD and Wallis ISD merged to form Wallis-Orchard ISD. In the late 1990s the District changed its name to Brazos ISD. The former Orchard ISD portion is in Fort Bend County and was formed from 4 Common Schools: Orchard, Randon, Krasna & Tavener.[6]

As of the 2010-2011 school year, the appraised valuation of property in the district was $326,473,000.[1] The maintenance tax rate was $1.04 and the bond tax rate was $0.36 per $100 of appraised valuation.[1]

Academic achievement

In 2011, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency.[5] Thirty-five percent of districts in Texas in 2011 received the same rating.[7] No state accountability ratings will be given to districts in 2012.[8] A school district in Texas can receive one of four possible rankings from the Texas Education Agency: Exemplary (the highest possible ranking), Recognized, Academically Acceptable, and Academically Unacceptable (the lowest possible ranking).
