Summary:
The city of Alpine, Texas is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Alpine Independent School District (Isd). While the schools face some socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, they demonstrate a range of academic strengths and performance levels.
Alpine High School stands out as the top performer, ranking 374 out of 1,987 Texas high schools and earning a 4-star rating. It boasts a high 95.2% 4-year graduation rate, low 0.3% dropout rate, and strong performance on STAAR end-of-course exams, particularly in U.S. History, English II Reading, and Biology. In contrast, Alpine Elementary lags behind the state averages on STAAR exams, while Alpine Middle School excels in 8th-grade Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies, ranking 798 out of 2,361 Texas middle schools.
Across the district, the schools maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios and spend between $11,769 and $14,625 per student. The diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic enrollment and significant White representation, reflects the broader community. While the district as a whole is ranked 358 out of 968 in Texas and rated 3 stars, the varying performance levels among the schools suggest opportunities for the district to focus on improving academic outcomes and addressing socioeconomic challenges to ensure all students in Alpine receive a high-quality education.
