Boys Ranch High School

Summary:

Boys Ranch High School is a small public high school serving grades 9-12 in the rural community of Boys Ranch, Texas, with a student population of just 98 as of the 2022-2023 school year. Despite its small size, this school stands out for its diverse student body, strong academic performance, and focus on supporting students from low-income backgrounds.

One of the most notable aspects of Boys Ranch High School is its racial diversity, with nearly half of the student population identifying as White, a quarter as Hispanic, and almost 20% as African American. This diversity is particularly impressive given the school's rural location. The school also boasts consistently high graduation rates, ranging from 94% to 100% over the past five years, far exceeding the state average. Dropout rates are also exceptionally low, ranging from 0% to just 1.4% during the same period.

While the school performs well on most state assessments, including standout results in U.S. History and Biology, it does struggle with lower proficiency rates in Algebra I compared to the state and district averages. However, the school's small size and low student-teacher ratio of just 3.5 to 3.9 students per teacher suggest a specialized focus on providing personalized attention and support to students, many of whom come from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. This targeted approach, combined with the district's high per-student spending, appears to be paying dividends in the school's strong overall academic outcomes.

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.
