Summary:
The Kountze Independent School District (Isd) in Texas operates 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals some standout schools and key insights about the district's academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation.
Kountze High School emerges as the strongest performer, with a high 4-year graduation rate of 91.3% and STAAR EOC proficiency rates that often exceed state averages. In contrast, Kountze Middle School generally lags behind the district and state in STAAR proficiency, except for a 100% proficiency rate in Algebra I. Kountze Intermediate stands out for its higher-than-average STAAR Reading and Mathematics proficiency in 3rd and 4th grades.
The schools in the district serve a predominantly white student population, with Kountze High School having a higher percentage of African American students. Socioeconomic challenges are evident, as the schools have high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, particularly at the elementary level. The district's resource allocation, with varying per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, may contribute to the observed academic performance differences among the schools.
