History

Circa 1983 there was a legal case that explored whether a Victoria County commissioner was right in giving assistance to Nursery ISD. [2]

In 2003 the students had Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) benchmark test scores above the state average. [3]

In 2009, the school district was rated "recognized" by the Texas Education Agency. [4]

Suzanne Bell, who was both principal and superintendent, stated in 2013 that having fewer benchmark tests helped students normalize testing versus seeing it as stressful. [5]
