High Schools in East Central Independent School District (Isd)

The East Central Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to four high schools serving students in grades 9-12. These schools vary in size, performance, and specialized offerings, providing a diverse educational landscape for families in the area. The district's high schools include East Central High School, East Central Cast Lead High School, Bexar County Learning Center, and Restorative And Transition Center.

Among the standout schools, East Central Cast Lead High School, a public charter, stands out with its smaller student population, lower student-teacher ratio, and stronger academic performance on STAAR exams compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Bexar County Learning Center, an alternative high school, has struggled with very low proficiency rates on STAAR exams and a 0% four-year graduation rate, indicating significant challenges in supporting student success.

The high schools in the East Central ISD serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, with varying levels of economic disadvantage as measured by free or reduced-price lunch eligibility. While East Central High School has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 85.8%, the district's overall performance on STAAR exams is significantly lower than the state average, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique educational needs of the diverse student population.
