Summary:
The city of Jacksboro, Texas is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Jacksboro Elementary, Jacksboro High School, and Jacksboro Middle. These schools, part of the Jacksboro Independent School District (ISD), demonstrate relatively consistent performance across the district, with some standout results in specific subject areas.
Jacksboro High School stands out for its high 4-year graduation rate of 98.4% and low dropout rate of 0.3%, as well as strong performance on STAAR EOC exams, particularly in U.S. History where 80.81% of students were proficient or better. Jacksboro Middle School also impresses with a 95% proficiency rate on the Algebra I STAAR EOC exam, significantly outperforming the district and state averages, and a relatively high 8th grade STAAR Science proficiency rate of 48.19%.
While the schools share similar demographic profiles, with predominantly White student populations, they face challenges related to high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 67.61% at Jacksboro Elementary to 68.36% at Jacksboro High School. This suggests potential equity concerns that warrant further investigation. Overall, the Jacksboro ISD schools demonstrate a mix of strengths and areas for improvement, providing opportunities for collaboration and sharing of best practices to support student success across the district.
