Travis Early College High School

Summary:

Travis Early College High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Austin, Texas, with a student population of 1,137. The school is part of the Austin Independent School District, which is ranked 554 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating.

Despite its "early college" focus, Travis Early College High School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Texas high schools over the past 10 years, with significantly lower performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams compared to the district and state averages. The school's graduation rates have also been lower than the state average, and its dropout rate has increased in recent years. Additionally, the school serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, and its performance is particularly low for Asian and Hispanic student subgroups.

In comparison, nearby schools like Richards School For Young Women Leaders and charter schools such as Idea Montopolis College Preparatory and Harmony School Of Excellence - Austin significantly outperform Travis Early College High School on academic measures, despite serving similar student populations. This suggests that the school may be struggling to effectively implement its "early college" model and meet the needs of its diverse student body.

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.
