Lake Granbury Academy Charter School

Lake Granbury Academy is the sole public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in the Lake Granbury Academy Charter School district. Despite spending a relatively high amount per student and having a low student-teacher ratio, the school consistently underperforms compared to state averages across all academic subjects and grade levels.

Lake Granbury Academy has a diverse student population, with 29.27% White, 17.07% African American, and 53.66% Hispanic students. However, the school's test scores are significantly below state averages, with 0% proficiency in 8th grade STAAR Mathematics, Algebra I, English I, and U.S. History end-of-course exams, compared to state averages ranging from 40.23% to 69.10%. Additionally, 80.49% of the school's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

The consistently low performance of Lake Granbury Academy, coupled with the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, suggests that the school may be facing significant challenges in providing a quality education. While the school is spending more per student than the state average, it is unclear whether the resources are being effectively allocated to address the root causes of the low academic performance. Identifying and addressing these challenges will be crucial in improving educational outcomes and ensuring that all students in the Lake Granbury Academy Charter School district have access to a quality education.
