Davis H S Aldine

Summary:

Davis H S Aldine is a public high school in Houston, Texas, serving 3,093 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Aldine Independent School District, which is ranked 790 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite serving a predominantly Hispanic (67.6%) and African American (27.35%) student population, Davis H S Aldine has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas high schools, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's four-year graduation rate has declined from 77.3% in 2018-2019 to 72.2% in 2022-2023, significantly lower than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Aldine High School (75.5%) and Blanson CTE High School (99.7%). Additionally, Davis H S Aldine's dropout rate has increased from 5.9% in 2017-2018 to 6.6% in 2021-2022, higher than the rates of nearby schools.

Academically, Davis H S Aldine students consistently underperform on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams compared to the Aldine Independent School District and the state of Texas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 10.94% of Davis H S Aldine students were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to 30.26% in the district and 44.73% statewide. This performance gap is particularly pronounced for certain student subgroups, such as White, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students. While the high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (88.39%) and the school's relatively high student-teacher ratio (18.5:1) may be contributing factors, the consistently low performance across various metrics suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes at Davis H S Aldine.

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.
