Lake Dallas Independent School District (Isd)

The Lake Dallas Independent School District (Isd) in Texas operates 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from diverse racial and economic backgrounds.

Lake Dallas High School stands out with the highest enrollment, an impressive 99.4% four-year graduation rate, and strong performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams, particularly in Biology, English II Reading, and U.S. History. However, the school struggles with Algebra I proficiency. Lake Dallas Middle School excels in Algebra I proficiency and performs above the district average on most STAAR assessments, while Shady Shores Elementary stands out for its relatively strong performance on STAAR Reading and Mathematics assessments.

The district and its schools generally perform below the state average on STAAR assessments, particularly in Mathematics, and have a significant proportion of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 34.49% at the high school to 62.73% at the elementary level. The district spends between $9,782 and $11,220 per student, which is in line with the state average, and maintains favorable student-teacher ratios. However, the declining performance at Corinth Elementary and Lake Dallas Elementary is a concern that warrants further investigation and targeted improvement strategies.
