Seagoville High School

Summary:

Seagoville High School is a public magnet high school in Dallas, Texas, serving 1,779 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Dallas Independent School District, which is ranked 557 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Seagoville High School faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, with consistently low rankings among Texas high schools. The school's proficiency rates on STAAR End-of-Course exams are well below state and district averages, ranging from 7.01% in Algebra I to 68.92% in U.S. History. While the school's graduation rate has improved to 87.2%, it is still lower than the state and district averages, and the dropout rate has fluctuated between 2.5% and 5.3%, which is higher than the state and district averages. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as White, Hispanic, and Gifted and Talented students, who rank in the bottom quartile of Texas high schools.

Seagoville High School's academic struggles are likely influenced by its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (87.13%), which is a significant factor contributing to its overall performance. The nearby schools with similar high percentages of economically disadvantaged students, such as W.W. Samuell High School (94.98%) and H. Grady Spruce High School (95.57%), also struggle with low academic achievement. Additionally, the school's racial makeup, with a majority Hispanic student population, reflects the broader demographic trends in the Dallas area, and the racial disparities in academic achievement observed at Seagoville High School are not unique, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to address these systemic challenges.

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.
