White Settlement Independent School District (Isd)

The White Settlement Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 8 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 441 out of 968 school districts in Texas and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Fine Arts Academy, an elementary school serving grades K-6, ranks 853 out of 4,675 Texas elementary schools and is rated 4 out of 5 stars. It has particularly strong performance on STAAR tests, with over 60% of students proficient or better in reading and math across multiple grade levels. Similarly, North Elementary, serving grades PK-4, ranks 1,127 out of 4,675 Texas elementary schools and is also rated 4 out of 5 stars, with above-average STAAR test scores compared to the district and state.

The schools within the White Settlement ISD exhibit a diverse racial composition, with Hispanic students making up the largest group, followed by White, African American, and Asian students. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch is high across the district, ranging from 42% at Fine Arts Academy to 80% at Liberty Elementary. Per-student spending and student-teacher ratios also vary significantly, suggesting potential inequities in resource allocation. Overall, the data reveals both areas of strength, such as the high-performing Fine Arts Academy and North Elementary, as well as opportunities for improvement, particularly in addressing performance gaps and ensuring equitable access to quality education for all students in the district.
