Summary:
The city of Hebbronville, Texas is home to three schools - Hebbronville Elementary, Hebbronville High School, and Hebbronville J H (middle school) - all of which serve a predominantly Hispanic student population. While the schools have some standout elements, such as Hebbronville High School's strong graduation rate and Hebbronville J H's high proficiency in Algebra I, there are also areas for improvement, particularly in academic performance on STAAR exams across the elementary and middle school levels.
Hebbronville Elementary stands out for its very high Hispanic student population at 96.65%, significantly above the state average. Hebbronville High School impresses with a 94.1% four-year graduation rate, outperforming the state average. Meanwhile, Hebbronville J H has an impressive 94.74% proficiency rate on the Algebra I end-of-course exam, far exceeding the district and state averages. However, the overall academic performance at Hebbronville Elementary and Hebbronville J H lags behind state averages, particularly in subjects like reading, math, and science, which could be an area of focus for the Jim Hogg County Independent School District (Isd).
Across all three schools, there is a consistently high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 85.19% to 88.33%, indicating a significant level of economic need in the Hebbronville community. The district's investment in smaller class sizes, with relatively low student-teacher ratios, suggests a commitment to supporting student learning, but the overall academic performance still lags behind state averages, so the impact of this investment may be limited. As the district works to address the unique challenges faced by its students, a focus on improving academic achievement, particularly in the elementary and middle school grades, could be a key priority.
