Trimble Technical High School

Summary:

Trimble Technical High School is a public high school in Fort Worth, Texas, serving 1,699 students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly Hispanic student population (84.05%) and a high percentage (over 90%) of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

While Trimble Technical High School has maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 96.3% to 98.8% over the past five years, its academic performance has been a concern. The school's STAAR EOC test scores are generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects, and its statewide ranking has declined over the years, from 811 out of 1,797 Texas high schools in 2017-2018 to 1,436 out of 1,961 in 2022-2023, with a consistent 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. When compared to nearby schools within the same district, such as Im Terrell Academy for STEM and VPA and Young Women's Leadership Academy, Trimble Technical High School generally underperforms in terms of test scores, graduation rates, and overall school rankings.

The school's high poverty rate may be a significant factor contributing to these challenges, as students from low-income families often face additional barriers to educational success. Addressing the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population could be a key focus for improving overall student outcomes at Trimble Technical High School, which is part of the Fort Worth 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.
