Summary:
The city of Ganado, Texas is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Ganado Elementary, Ganado High School, and Ganado Jh (middle school). These schools are part of the Ganado Independent School District (Isd).
Ganado Elementary stands out as the top-performing school in the district, consistently exceeding state averages on STAAR tests and maintaining a high SchoolDigger ranking. In contrast, Ganado Jh (middle school) struggles, with test scores significantly below state averages, particularly in math and science. Ganado High School performs well, with an impressive 95.8% four-year graduation rate and low 0.5% dropout rate, indicating the school is effectively supporting students and helping them successfully complete their high school education.
The district appears to make an effort to allocate resources equitably, with relatively consistent per-student spending across the three schools. However, the differences in student outcomes suggest that simply providing equal funding may not be enough, and the district may need to explore other strategies to support the specific needs of each school. By investigating the practices and strategies used at the high-performing Ganado Elementary and replicating their success at the other schools, the Ganado Independent School District (Isd) may be able to improve overall academic performance and equity across the district.
