Summary:
The city of Marble Falls, Texas is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative high school). These schools are part of the Marble Falls Independent School District (Isd).
Among the standout schools, Colt Elementary ranks in the top 40% of Texas elementary schools and has the highest proficiency rates in reading, math, and science compared to the other elementary school and the district average. Marble Falls High School has a strong 97.8% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than the state average, but its test scores, particularly in Algebra I, are below the district and state averages. In contrast, Falls Career High School, an alternative high school, has the lowest state-wide ranking, with lower test scores, higher dropout rates, and a higher percentage of students receiving free/reduced lunch compared to the other high school.
The schools in Marble Falls have a diverse student population, with Hispanic students making up the largest racial group (around 40-50%), followed by White students (around 45-65%). While the elementary and middle schools generally perform below the state averages on STAAR exams, the high schools have mixed results, with Marble Falls High School outperforming the state in some subjects but underperforming in others. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 60-70% across all schools, indicates a significant economically disadvantaged population that may require targeted interventions and support.
