San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District


Summary:

The San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District in Texas operates 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, serving students from diverse backgrounds. The district's schools exhibit a wide range of academic performance, with some standout institutions like Crockett Elementary and Hernandez Elementary leading the way with strong proficiency rates in reading, math, and science. In contrast, other schools like Dezavala Elementary and Mendez Elementary struggle to meet state standards, highlighting significant disparities in educational outcomes across the district.

The data reveals that the district's graduation rate at San Marcos High School is below the state average, while the middle schools maintain very low dropout rates. Funding appears to be a key factor, as schools with higher per-student spending, such as Crockett Elementary and Hernandez Elementary, tend to have better academic results. Additionally, the district faces challenges in supporting its large population of English learners and economically disadvantaged students, as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility.

Overall, the San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District presents a mixed picture, with pockets of excellence alongside areas in need of improvement. Addressing the underlying factors that contribute to these disparities, such as funding, teacher quality, and support for high-need student populations, could be crucial in ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students in the district.
