Summary:
The Hull-Daisetta Independent School District (Isd) in Texas operates three schools: one elementary, one middle, and one high school. While the district faces academic challenges, with all schools performing below the state average on standardized tests, there are some bright spots worth highlighting.
Hull-Daisetta High School has seen a steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 1243 out of 1876 Texas high schools in 2021-2022 to 983 out of 1961 in 2022-2023. The school boasts a strong 90.3% four-year graduation rate, higher than the state average, and performed well on STAAR End-of-Course exams, with 81% of students proficient or better in English II Reading and 53% in Biology. In contrast, Hull-Daisetta Elementary School has a low statewide ranking but shows promise, with 44.74% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics and 41.38% of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in Reading.
The district's student population is predominantly white, ranging from 74.29% to 79.66% across the three schools, with the second-largest group being African American. However, the schools face significant socioeconomic challenges, with 60% to 79.78% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may be contributing to the district's overall academic struggles, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
