Summary:
The Tuloso-Midway Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to two high schools: Tuloso-Midway High School and Tuloso-Midway Academic Career Center. While both schools share the same district, they exhibit notable differences in their student populations, academic performance, and resource allocation.
Tuloso-Midway High School is the larger of the two, with over 1,000 students enrolled. It boasts a high four-year graduation rate of 96.6% and a low dropout rate of 0.5%. However, the school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is mixed, with some subjects exceeding district and state averages, while others fall significantly behind. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic (82.49%), with a smaller percentage of White students (15.16%).
In contrast, Tuloso-Midway Academic Career Center is a much smaller high school, with only 39 students enrolled. While it maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 92.9%, its dropout rate of 1.3% is higher than its larger counterpart. Notably, the Academic Career Center's performance on STAAR EOC exams is consistently lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($26,305) is more than double the district average, likely due to its small enrollment.
