Two Harmony Public Schools - Central Texas campuses earned a perfect 100% of their eligible Texas Education Agency (TEA) Distinction Designations in the state's latest school accountability ratings. Harmony Science Academy-Leander and Harmony School of Endeavor both secured overall "A" ratings paired with a 100% college acceptance rate for graduating seniors.
TEA Distinction Designations evaluate campus achievement relative to 40 similar schools statewide based on student demographics. Designations are awarded in up to seven performance categories, including academic achievement in core subjects, comparative growth, closing achievement gaps, and postsecondary readiness. Achieving a 100% rating indicates a school earned every single distinction for which it was eligible.
Harmony Science Academy-Leander (PK4–7th grade) captured all eligible distinction designations in its very first rating cycle after opening in the 2025–2026 academic year. The campus earned an overall score of 95 and a score of 94 in Closing the Gaps while serving a demographic of 43.1% Emergent Bilingual students and 8.8% economically disadvantaged scholars.
Harmony School of Endeavor (PK4–12th grade) also achieved 100% of its eligible distinctions alongside an overall "A" rating. The campus earned a score of 97 in Relative Performance—measuring achievement against schools with similar economic profiles—and a 98 in Closing the Gaps. The student body includes 34.8% economically disadvantaged and 41.7% Emergent Bilingual students.
"These ratings reflect the relentless hard work of our scholars, teachers, and school leaders," said Dr. Mustafa Altindag, Area Superintendent for Harmony Public Schools - Central Texas. "From long-standing campuses to brand-new schools in their very first rating cycle, our teams have proven that high expectations and a supportive community yield extraordinary results."
