The Richardson Independent School District Academy is a public school in Richardson, off Coit Road. The school serves kindergarten through sixth grade students. There are monolingual English and bilingual Spanish classes for the students. Teachers and administrators at the Richardson Independent School District Academy work hard to foster a sense of community between parents, students and the school. The school hosts many engaging events throughout the school year, like Curriculum Night and the Family Engagement Parent Conference. There is a dedicated Community Outreach Specialist assigned to the campus. This person helps arrange food drives and uniform drives to support students’ well-being. Special programs on campus aim to develop the whole child. Every week students will attend one art class and two music classes. In addition to fine arts classes, students participate in health and physical education classes. These classes are part of the district’s Coordinated School Health initiative. Through this program, students learn how to make healthy and active lifestyle choices. Other health and wellness services, like counseling, are also available to students. All students are required to wear a uniform and follow the rules in the Student Code of Conduct. The school has spirit days every Friday, so students and staff can display their school pride. Students are able to wear their school spirit shirts every Friday and on all other designated spirit days.

GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
