Best Public Schools in Monte Alto, TX


Summary:

The city of Monte Alto, Texas is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Roberto Garate Elementary, Monte Alto High School, and Jose Borrego Middle. These schools, part of the Monte Alto Independent School District (Isd), serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, with high rates of economic disadvantage.

Among the standout schools, Jose Borrego Middle ranks in the top half of Texas middle schools and outperforms the district and state averages in reading proficiency. Meanwhile, Monte Alto High School boasts a high graduation rate of 94.3% and a low dropout rate of 0.6%, suggesting strong support for student success. However, the schools generally underperform the state averages in STAAR/STAAR EOC exams, particularly in mathematics and science, with Roberto Garate Elementary having the lowest proficiency rates.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, ranging from 89.78% to 91.93%, indicate that the schools serve economically disadvantaged communities, which likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by the district. While the schools face significant hurdles, the data also highlights potential bright spots, such as the success of Jose Borrego Middle and Monte Alto High School, which could provide insights for improving the performance of the other schools in the district.
