Summary:
The Carrizo Springs, Texas school district consists of 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, serving a predominantly Hispanic student population with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. While the schools face significant academic and socioeconomic challenges, there are some bright spots, such as the relatively high graduation rate at Carrizo Springs High School and the strong performance of Carrizo Springs J H on certain assessments.
The data reveals that the schools in Carrizo Springs consistently underperform compared to the state average on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics and science, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and support to improve academic outcomes. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients indicate that the schools serve a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance issues and should be considered when developing strategies for improvement.
Despite the overall performance concerns, the data also highlights some potential bright spots, such as the relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 86.9% and low dropout rate of 4.5% at Carrizo Springs High School, as well as the strong performance of Carrizo Springs J H on certain assessments, such as 7th grade reading and Algebra I. These successes could provide insights into effective practices that could be replicated across the Carrizo Springs Consolidated Independent School District.
