Every Texas school district is graded by the Texas Education Association, not only at the district level, but also at the campus level. Life School has 2 registered campuses with TEA, referred to as Life School Dallas County (Pathway) and Life School Ellis County (Pathway). A pathway can be thought of as a feeder pattern. For example, our Cedar Hill and Mountain Creek campus students usually continue into our Oak Cliff Middle or High School. And our Innovation Academy and Red Oak students usually continue into our Waxahachie Middle and Waxahachie High schools. You can see the normal path structure on our Schools and Campuses web page.

Homeschool students are not allowed to participate in UIL activities sponsored by Life School during the remainder of any school year during which the student was previously enrolled in a public school.
