Booker T Washington High School

Summary:

Booker T Washington High School is a public high school in Conroe, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a relatively small student population of 166 students. The school has a diverse racial makeup, with a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Despite its higher per-student spending compared to nearby schools, Booker T Washington High School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Texas high schools, with very low academic performance across various metrics. The school's STAAR EOC proficiency rates are significantly lower than the district and state averages, and its four-year graduation rate is also lower than the state average. Certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic and African American students, as well as English Language Learners, perform particularly poorly at the school.

In comparison, other high schools in the Conroe Independent School District, such as The Woodlands High School, Oak Ridge High School, Caney Creek High School, and Conroe High School, have higher academic rankings, test scores, graduation rates, and lower dropout rates. Addressing the root causes of Booker T Washington High School's underperformance will be crucial for improving student success.

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.
