Best Public Schools in Tulia, TX


Summary:

The city of Tulia, Texas is home to three public schools serving students from elementary through high school: Tulia Elementary, Tulia High School, and Tulia J H. While the schools have some positive attributes, the data suggests they are collectively struggling to meet state academic standards and serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.

None of the Tulia schools appear to be clear standouts based on the available data. All three schools perform significantly below state averages on standardized test scores, with 3rd grade reading proficiency at Tulia Elementary reaching just 18.75% compared to the state average of 48.85%. However, Tulia High School does have a strong 4-year graduation rate of 97.2%, which is above the state average, though its dropout rate is not provided.

Across the district, the schools serve a majority Hispanic student population, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 80.5% to 82.52%. This indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student body. Per-student spending varies between the schools, from $12,048 at Tulia Elementary to $14,277 at Tulia High School, which may suggest imbalances in resource allocation. Overall, the data points to systemic challenges that the Tulia Independent School District will need to address to improve academic outcomes for its students.
