Summary:
The city of Blue Ridge, Texas is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Blue Ridge Elementary, Blue Ridge High School, and Blue Ridge Middle. These schools, part of the Blue Ridge Independent School District (Isd), serve a diverse student population with a significant percentage of students from low-income families.
Blue Ridge High School stands out as a top performer, achieving a remarkable 100% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate. The school also outperforms the state average on several STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams, including Biology, English I Reading, and English II Reading. In contrast, Blue Ridge Elementary generally performs below the state average on STAAR reading and math assessments, with some exceptions like 4th grade reading.
Blue Ridge Middle also stands out, with strong performance in 7th grade reading and 8th grade science, exceeding the state averages. However, the school struggles in 6th and 8th grade math. The data suggests that school performance can vary significantly by grade level and subject area, and that factors such as spending per student and socioeconomic challenges may play a role in shaping academic outcomes across the district.
