Summary:
The city of Perryton, Texas is home to 6 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an accelerated education center). Based on the data analysis, a few schools stand out as strong performers in the Perryton Independent School District.
Perryton J H (middle school) and Edwin F Williams Intermediate (elementary school) outperformed the state and district averages on STAAR tests across multiple grade levels and subjects, with Perryton J H ranked 847 out of 2,361 Texas middle schools and Edwin F Williams Intermediate ranked 1,435 out of 4,675 Texas elementary schools. These schools also maintained relatively low student-teacher ratios.
The high schools in Perryton had more mixed results, with Perryton High School performing better overall but Ludi Pena Martin Accelerated Education Center maintaining high graduation rates and low dropout rates despite low test scores. The small size of Ludi Pena Martin Accelerated Education Center (16 students) may contribute to its unique challenges. Across the district, there appears to be a correlation between higher free/reduced lunch rates and lower academic performance, suggesting socioeconomic factors play a role in student outcomes.
