Summary:
Springlake-Earth Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single high school, Springlake-Earth High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's academic performance is mixed, with strengths in graduation and dropout rates but challenges in certain STAAR test subjects compared to state averages. Despite the district's relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratio, the school's socioeconomic factors may be impacting its overall academic achievement.
Springlake-Earth High School has a total enrollment of 131 students, with a diverse student population that is 24.43% White, 74.81% Hispanic, and 0.76% Asian. The school's performance on STAAR tests is below the state average in reading, mathematics, science, and social studies for 8th grade, as well as in Algebra I and English II Reading for End-of-Course exams. However, the school exceeds the state average in Biology and U.S. History EOC exams.
Despite the academic performance challenges, Springlake-Earth High School boasts a high four-year graduation rate of 95.5% and a 0.0% dropout rate. The school's spending per student is $17,968, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.9. These factors suggest that the district is allocating significant resources to the school, but the academic data indicates that these resources may not be translating into optimal student outcomes. The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (67.18%) may be a contributing factor to the school's performance challenges, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and support to address socioeconomic barriers to academic success.
