Summary:
Bloomington Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single high school, Bloomington High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance and characteristics reveal some areas of concern, particularly in academic achievement and socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population.
Bloomington High School's academic performance on STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) End-of-Course (EOC) exams is significantly lower than the state average across all subjects, and this performance has declined over the past two years. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (72.8%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low-income student population, which can present unique challenges in terms of educational resources and support.
Despite the school's relatively small size, with an enrollment of only 239 students, it spends a relatively high amount per student ($16,661) and has a low student-teacher ratio of 9.1. However, these resources do not appear to be translating into strong academic outcomes, suggesting a need to evaluate the effectiveness and allocation of these funds to better support student success. Overall, the analysis of Bloomington High School highlights the need for targeted interventions and strategies to address the school's academic underperformance and socioeconomic challenges.
