Summary:
The Clint Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to 4 high schools serving students in grades 9-12. The standout school in the district is the Clint Independent School District (ISD) Early College Academy, which consistently ranks among the top 100 high schools in Texas and outperforms the district and state on key metrics like graduation rates, test scores, and dropout rates. The other high schools in the Clint ISD - Horizon High School, Mountain View High School, and Clint High School - generally perform below the state averages on test scores, despite serving student populations with similar high-need characteristics.
The Clint Independent School District (ISD) Early College Academy stands out as an exceptional high school, with a 100% four-year graduation rate, 0% dropout rate, and significantly higher test scores than the district and state averages across all subjects. This suggests the district has the capability to operate a high-performing school, even within a broader district that is underperforming. The other high schools in the district, however, have room for improvement, as the district as a whole has a relatively low ranking (614 out of 968 in Texas) and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The high free/reduced lunch rates across all schools in the Clint ISD, ranging from 80.79% to 84.56%, suggest the district serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, which may present unique challenges and require targeted support and resources. Additionally, the variation in student-teacher ratios, from 13.5 to 19.2, could be an area to explore further to understand how class sizes may be impacting student outcomes across the different schools.
