Pittsburg Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Pittsburg Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district serves a diverse student population with a high percentage of students from low-income families, as evidenced by the high free/reduced lunch rates across all schools.

Among the standout schools in the district is Pittsburg J H, a middle school that has consistently ranked among the top 425 middle schools in Texas over the past three years, maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's exceptional performance in reading, mathematics, and Algebra I End-of-Course (EOC) exams suggests a strong academic focus and effective teaching practices. In contrast, Pittsburg Elementary has struggled to maintain a high ranking, dropping from 2,766 out of 4,581 Texas elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 3,769 out of 4,647 in 2022-2023, with a 1-star rating. The school's test scores in reading and mathematics for 3rd and 4th-grade students are below the state averages, indicating a need for improvement in these areas.

The Pittsburg High School has maintained a high 4-year graduation rate of 99.4% for the 2022-2023 school year and a relatively low dropout rate of 0.1% for the 2021-2022 school year. The school has also performed well on several STAAR EOC exams, with 68.37% and 67.53% of students proficient or better in English II Reading and U.S. History, respectively, exceeding the state averages. However, the variation in spending per student, from $8,626 at Pittsburg Intermediate to $12,365 at Pittsburg High School, suggests potential funding disparities within the district that may impact student outcomes.
