Brazoswood High School

Summary:

Brazoswood High School is a public high school located in Clute, Texas, serving 2,398 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Brazosport Independent School District, which is ranked 518 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Brazoswood High School has a diverse student population, with 38.82% White, 50.25% Hispanic, and smaller percentages of other racial groups. The school's statewide ranking has consistently placed it in the middle range of Texas high schools, ranking between 956 and 1316 out of 1861 to 1987 schools over the past 10 years. While the school's four-year graduation rate is relatively high, ranging from 90.2% to 92.5% over the past five years, its STAAR EOC (End of Course) test scores are generally below the state and district averages, with the exception of English II Reading. The school's performance is on par with or slightly below the other high schools in the Brazosport Independent School District, such as Brazosport High School.

Brazoswood High School's rankings for subgroups like English Language Learners, Special Education students, and At-Risk students suggest that the school may need to focus more on supporting these populations to improve their academic outcomes. Additionally, the school's relatively high percentage of students (54%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, a proxy for low socioeconomic status, may contribute to its lower academic performance compared to the state and district averages. While the school's per-student spending of around $11,000 is slightly higher than the state average, it is unclear if this funding is being effectively utilized to improve student performance.

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.
