Summary:
Evant Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single high school, Evant High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.
Evant High School consistently underperforms the state averages on STAAR test proficiency rates across multiple subjects and grade levels, with its statewide ranking dropping from 1223 out of 1876 Texas high schools in 2021-2022 to 1475 out of 1987 in 2023-2024. The school's four-year graduation rate of 71.4% is lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 4.5% is higher. Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.3 to 1, the school's academic performance remains below state standards, suggesting the need for a closer examination of resource allocation and utilization.
The high percentage of students (62%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Evant High School indicates that the school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, which may contribute to the academic challenges faced by the institution. The Evant Independent School District and its sole high school must address these issues to improve student outcomes and provide a high-quality education to the community.
