Congratulations to the three elementary schools that achieved "Exemplary" status with the Texas Education Agency in 2007! Nine other Mission schools and seven Sharyland schools achieved "Recognized" status. Every year, the state agency rates the individual schools of every school district. The top two categories are "Exemplary" and "Recognized". An "Exemplary" rating means that the campus had 90% or more of their students pass the TAKS (Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills). Schools with 75% to 90% pass rate achieve "Recognized" status. Area HospitalMission Regional Medical Center (MRMC) is one of the Valley's premier medical centers.
