Lake Granbury Academy

Summary:

Lake Granbury Academy is a public charter high school located in Granbury, Texas, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 41 students. Despite its small size, the school's performance data paints a concerning picture, with consistently low academic achievement and significant struggles for specific student subgroups.

The school's academic performance is particularly troubling, ranking among the lowest-performing high schools in Texas over the past four years. With a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger and 0% proficiency rates in key subjects like Mathematics, Algebra I, and U.S. History, Lake Granbury Academy is significantly underperforming compared to nearby schools like Brock High School, which ranked 272 out of 1,961 Texas high schools in 2022-2023 and had a 98.3% four-year graduation rate. The school's struggles are especially pronounced for Hispanic, White, and low-income students, who perform in the bottom 5% of Texas high schools.

Despite the school's high spending per student, ranging from $11,687 to $14,246 over the past three years, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's lack of consistent improvement and its low ranking within the state's charter school system (959 out of 968) suggest that there may be challenges with school leadership, governance, and the overall management of the Granbury Independent School District. These factors, combined with the school's high poverty rates, fluctuating student-teacher ratios, and dismal test scores, highlight the urgent need for significant interventions and improvements to ensure that all students at Lake Granbury Academy have access to a quality education.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
