Summary:
The city of Coolidge, Texas is home to two schools: Coolidge Elementary and Coolidge High School, both part of the Coolidge Independent School District (Isd). These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and demonstrate a mix of academic strengths and socioeconomic challenges.
Coolidge Elementary stands out for its consistently high performance on STAAR tests, with 5th-grade students scoring above the state average in reading, math, and science. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2 may contribute to its academic success, though it also serves a high percentage (72.9%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population. In contrast, Coolidge High School impresses with its 100% four-year graduation rate and low 0.0% dropout rate, significantly outperforming the state average.
Both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, with Coolidge High School students exceeding the state average on STAAR End-of-Course exams in several subjects. The district also allocates more resources to these schools, with Coolidge Elementary spending $11,783 per student and Coolidge High School spending $13,386 per student, both higher than the state average. This suggests a commitment to supporting the needs of the district's socioeconomically disadvantaged student population and ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all.
