During Monday night’s meeting, the Brownwood ISD Board of Trustees received the Texas Academic Performance Report (TAPR) for the 2024-25 school year.

TAPR pulls together a wide range of information on the performance of students in each school and district in Texas every year. Performance is shown disaggregated by student groups, including ethnicity and socioeconomic status. The reports also provide extensive information on school and district staff, programs, and student demographics.
