Summary:
Brazos River Charter School is the sole public charter high school serving grades 8-12 in Nemo, Texas, with a total enrollment of 132 students. While the school's student population is predominantly White (70.45%), it also serves smaller percentages of Hispanic (18.94%) and African American (5.3%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the state average across multiple subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates ranging from 14% to 17% in 8th grade compared to the state averages of 31% to 56%.
