Welcome to the SwiftWeb!

It's not bragging if it's true...

Did you hear the news? Nazareth ISD is one of just EIGHT "Exceptional" school districts statewide.

In order to qualify as exceptional, a school district had to have a completion rate of 95% or higher and a 70% or better on the state's 'College Ready Graduates' indicator, which is a measure of graduates earning scores at or above the criterion score on both the ELA and Math sections of the TAKS, SAT, or ACT tests.

And if that weren't enough, U.S.News Media Group placed Nazareth in the top 10% of all schools statewide.

The No Child Left Behind data for 2008 is in, and we are proud to say the Fed found no areas needing improvement here. You can see a PDF of the school's memo here: Nazareth's 2008 NCLB report card. For reference or comparison, you can also see the 2007-2008 School Report Card.

There is a new and very informative school brochure you can download and print out... it's certainly worth looking at!

Welcome to the last half of school!

It’s all basketball games, placement tests, stock shows, track, TAKS (TEKS, whatever), tennis, UIL and who knows what else for the next 5 months. If you don’t feel busy then odds are you’re missing out!

Work is continuing on the staff listing and contact pages. There's other irons in the fire too, so please bear with us while things get improved, developed and tweaked. Suggestions are alwyas welcome.
