Corpus Christi Independent School District (Isd)

The Corpus Christi Independent School District (Isd) operates 52 schools, including 31 elementary schools, 10 middle schools, 10 high schools, and 1 alternative school, serving students in the Corpus Christi area. The district's schools exhibit a wide range of academic performance, with some standout institutions like Collegiate High School and Windsor Park G/T ranking among the top schools in Texas, while others struggle to meet state averages.

The district's high schools have varying four-year graduation rates, from 83.1% at Roy Miller H.S. and Metro School of Design to 100% at Collegiate High School. Dropout rates also differ significantly, ranging from 0.3% at Veterans Memorial High School to 10.3% at Coles H.S. and Educational Center. Academic performance on STAAR EOC and STAAR exams is generally below the state averages, with some exceptions like the high-performing schools mentioned earlier.

The data reveals substantial disparities in educational outcomes across the district, suggesting that some schools may be struggling to provide equitable opportunities for their students. However, the presence of high-achieving schools like Collegiate High School, Windsor Park G/T, and Harold T. Branch Academy for Career & Technical Education demonstrates the district's potential to deliver excellent academic results when the right conditions are in place. Addressing these disparities and leveraging the strengths of the top-performing schools could help the Corpus Christi Independent School District (Isd) provide more equitable and high-quality education for all its students.
