Best Public Schools in Vernon, TX


Summary:

The city of Vernon, Texas is home to 7 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The schools in this district serve a diverse student population with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting limited resources may be a factor in the academic performance challenges observed across the district.

While most schools in the Vernon Independent School District struggle to meet state averages on STAAR test scores, particularly in math and reading, one school stands out as a bright spot - Northside School, an alternative school. Northside boasts an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate and 0% dropout rate, along with test scores that outperform the state and district averages. In contrast, Vernon High School has lower test scores compared to the state but maintains a relatively high 92.9% four-year graduation rate and a low 0.9% dropout rate.

The data also reveals significant disparities in school size, with enrollment ranging from just 12 students at the Vernon Independent School District (Isd) Opportunity Center to 532 students at Vernon High School. Understanding these enrollment trends and their impact on resource allocation could provide valuable insights for the Vernon Independent School District (Isd) and the Northside Independent School District (Isd) as they work to address the academic performance gaps across the district.
