Kenedy Independent School District (Isd)

The Kenedy Independent School District (Isd) in Texas operates three schools: Kenedy Elementary, Kenedy High School, and Kenedy Middle. The district is ranked 827 out of 968 districts in Texas and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other districts in the state.

Kenedy High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 92.9%, which is above the state average. Kenedy Middle School also impresses with a 0% dropout rate, suggesting strong student retention. However, Kenedy Elementary has a high percentage of students (87.92%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Across all three schools, student proficiency rates on STAAR tests are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in mathematics and science. The district may need to focus on improving curriculum and instruction in these subject areas. Additionally, the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Kenedy Elementary and the relatively low per-student spending at Kenedy Middle School suggest resource challenges that could be impacting student outcomes. Overall, the Kenedy Independent School District has some bright spots, but also significant areas for improvement to address the academic gaps observed in the data.
