|---|---|---|---|---|
| Texas House of Representatives District 21 | Dade Phelan | Republican Party | 100% | 19% |
The table was limited to the lower chamber because it provides the most granularity. State house districts tend to be more numerous and therefore smaller than state senate or U.S. House districts. This provides an impression of the partisan affiliations in the area.

Academic performance
Each year, state and local education agencies use tests and other standards to assess student proficiency. Although the data below was published by the U.S. Department of Education, proficiency measurements are established by the states. As a result, proficiency levels are not comparable between different states and year-over-year proficiency levels within a district may not be comparable because states may change their proficiency measurements.[2]
- Mathematics
- Reading/language arts
- Graduation rates
The following table shows the percentage of district students who scored at or above the proficiency level each school year:
