Somerville Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Somerville Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates three schools: Somerville Elementary, Somerville High School, and Somerville Intermediate. While the district serves a diverse student population, with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, the schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages on academic measures such as STAAR test scores.

Despite the district's efforts to allocate more resources to the high school, with higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios, the academic outcomes have not significantly improved. The statewide school ranking history shows that the schools have either stagnated or declined in their rankings over the past few years, indicating a lack of substantial progress. This suggests that the district may need to re-evaluate its strategies and implement more effective interventions to drive academic success across all grade levels.

The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 71.86% at Somerville High School to 76.89% at Somerville Elementary, highlights the significant socioeconomic challenges faced by the district. This factor may be contributing to the academic struggles, and the district should consider implementing targeted programs and support systems to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
