Summary:

Eagle Pass High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Eagle Pass, Texas, with a student population of 2,369 that is predominantly Hispanic (97.85%). The school is part of the Eagle Pass Independent School District, which is ranked 553 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of Eagle Pass High School's key strengths is its consistently high graduation rates, ranging from 95.7% in 2019-2020 to 98.1% in 2021-2022, significantly outperforming the nearby C.C. Winn High School, which had an 89.7% graduation rate in 2022-2023. The school also maintains very low dropout rates, between 0.1% and 0.4%, compared to 3.0% at C.C. Winn High School in 2021-2022. Additionally, Eagle Pass High School generally outperforms the district and state averages in STAAR EOC (End of Course) assessments, particularly in subjects like Biology, English II Reading, and U.S. History.

Another notable aspect of Eagle Pass High School is its strong performance for migrant students, consistently ranking among the top 13 high schools in Texas for migrant student performance, with a 4-star rating in 2022-2023 and a 5-star rating in 2021-2022. However, the school faces challenges related to the socioeconomic status of its student body, with 70.58% of students coming from low-income families in 2022-2023. While Eagle Pass High School's overall performance has fluctuated over the years, it remains a relatively stronger-performing school within the Eagle Pass Independent School District.

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.
