Southwest Independent School District (Isd)

Summary:

The Southwest Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 18 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 669 out of 968 in Texas and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Cast STEM High School ranks 392 out of 1,987 Texas high schools and is rated 4 out of 5 stars, with strong performance on STAAR exams. Southwest High School also performs better than the district average on many STAAR exams and has a high 94.4% four-year graduation rate. Additionally, Kriewald Road School of the Arts stands out for its strong reading proficiency among 3rd and 5th graders.

However, the data reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, both within the district and compared to state averages. Many of the schools with the highest percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch also have some of the lowest STAAR test scores, suggesting a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance. The specialized schools in the district, such as Cast STEM High School and Kriewald Road School of the Arts, demonstrate stronger academic performance compared to the district's other schools, highlighting the potential benefits of specialized programs and curricula.
