Best Public Schools in Lasara, TX


Summary:

The city of Lasara, Texas is home to two schools - Lasara Elementary and Lasara High School, both part of the Lasara Independent School District (Isd). These schools serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, with Lasara High School being 100% Hispanic. However, the academic performance of the schools, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the state averages across various subjects and grade levels.

Despite the relatively high spending per student at both Lasara Elementary ($14,486) and Lasara High School ($19,511), the schools continue to struggle academically. This raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the effectiveness of the district's educational strategies. On a positive note, Lasara High School boasts a high four-year graduation rate of 95.2%, suggesting that the school is able to retain and graduate a significant portion of its students. However, the high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients at both schools (over 85%) indicate that the student population faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to the academic struggles observed.

Overall, the schools in Lasara, Texas face a range of challenges, including low academic performance, high poverty rates, and a lack of racial diversity. While the district's high spending per student and the positive graduation rate at Lasara High School suggest that there may be opportunities for improvement, significant work is needed to address the underlying issues and improve educational outcomes for the students in this community.
