More than 40 Collin County Schools Named to 2025 Texas Honor Roll

Forty-two Collin County campuses earned spots on the 2025 Texas Honor Roll compiled by the Educational Results Partnership (ERP), a recognition focused on sustained student achievement and progress in closing gaps among higher-poverty and historically disadvantaged groups. Statewide, ERP named 1,076 schools and 84 school districts to the list, roughly 15% of Texas schools and 14.5% of districts.

ERP based the 2025 Honor Roll on publicly available State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness results from 2023 through 2025. The program, now in its eleventh year, spotlights schools that demonstrate both high levels of achievement and measurable improvement over time. The Honor Roll effort is supported by the Campaign for Business and Education Excellence and co-presented with the Texas Business Leadership Council, reflecting a public-private push to connect education outcomes with workforce and economic priorities.

For Collin County families and local leaders, the recognition has practical implications. Honor Roll status can reinforce neighborhood reputation, factor into housing decisions, and strengthen districts’ pitches for teacher recruitment and business partnerships. Employers that evaluate local talent pipelines also track these signals when planning investments and workforce development partnerships.

The Honor Roll is distinct from other ranking systems. Allen ISD, which serves more than 20,000 students across 24 campuses, recently highlighted a separate set of rankings and noted local recognition in national lists. Superintendent Dr. Robin Bullock said, “Allen ISD is known as a premier school district in Texas, and these rankings reflect that perception.” That statement reflects community-level attention to multiple measures of school quality, but it should not be read as confirmation that specific Allen campuses are among ERP’s 42 Collin County Honor Roll schools without checking the Honor Roll roster.

Readers should also consider longer-run accountability context. Texas Education Agency accountability data from 2022 show variation across Collin County districts in metrics compiled that year, with district percentages and letter grades ranging notably from one district to another. Those earlier ratings provide a baseline but do not substitute for ERP’s targeted analysis of STAAR trends through 2025.

The full 2025 Honor Roll roster and campus-level detail are available on the Honor Roll website maintained by the program. Local school districts will likely publish campus lists and reactions in coming days; district offices provide the most direct confirmations and context for parents and community partners. For Allen High School the district can be reached at 300 Rivercrest Boulevard, Allen, TX 75002, 972-727-0400.

What this means for readers: the Honor Roll results validate progress in many Collin County classrooms and give parents, real-estate stakeholders, and employers a data-driven lens on local schools. The next step for community leaders is to translate recognition into sustained supports that keep shrinking achievement gaps and build stronger pipelines from classrooms to careers.
