Summary:
The city of Daingerfield, Texas is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Daingerfield-Lone Star Independent School District (Isd). While Daingerfield High School shows some promising performance, with a 100% graduation rate and strong English exam scores, the district as a whole is struggling, ranking 758 out of 968 districts in Texas and rated just 1 star out of 5.
The elementary schools in Daingerfield face significant challenges, with South Elementary consistently ranking in the bottom 10% of Texas elementary schools over the past 3 years and having much lower proficiency rates on state exams compared to the state averages. Meanwhile, West Elementary stands out with a relatively low student-teacher ratio but a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population.
Across the district, the schools face the challenge of serving a predominantly high-poverty student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 83% to nearly 90%. Addressing the unique needs of these students and implementing targeted interventions could be crucial for improving educational outcomes in Daingerfield.
