High Schools in Dimmitt Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

Dimmitt Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single high school, Dimmitt High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population, with 89.77% of students identifying as Hispanic. While Dimmitt High School has a high four-year graduation rate of 96.2% and a relatively low dropout rate of 2.3%, its academic performance on the STAAR EOC exams is generally lower than the district and state averages, particularly in subjects like Algebra I, U.S. History, and English II Reading.

The school's high percentage of students (81.52%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch indicates a significant level of economic need among the student population. Despite the district's higher spending per student ($15,057) and the school's favorable student-teacher ratio of 9.7, the academic performance data suggests that the school may need to evaluate the effectiveness of its resource allocation and instructional practices to better support student learning and achievement.

While Dimmitt High School's performance on some metrics, such as English I Reading, is on par with the state, the gaps in other subject areas suggest opportunities for the school to learn from and collaborate with higher-performing districts or schools to improve its overall academic outcomes. The school's strengths, such as its high graduation rate and low student-teacher ratio, can be leveraged, but the challenges related to socioeconomic factors and academic performance will require targeted interventions and a comprehensive review of the school's strategies to ensure the success of all students.
