The state's school financial accountability rating system, known as the School Financial Integrity Rating System of Texas (FIRST), ensures that Texas public schools are held accountable for the quality of their financial management practices and that they improve those practices.  Alief ISD has received the highest rating under the School FIRST rating system each year since the system was implemented.

Alief ISD held a public meeting at 6:30 p.m., November 28, 2023 in the Administration Building Board Room, located at 4250 Cook Road, Houston, Texas.  The purpose of this meeting was to discuss Alief ISD's rating on the state's financial accountability system.
