Lee High School

Summary:

Lee High School is a public high school located in Baytown, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,845 students. The school is part of the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 706 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Lee High School is part of the same school district as Goose Creek Memorial and Sterling High, its academic performance lags significantly behind these nearby schools. Lee High School consistently ranks in the bottom 30% of Texas high schools, with particularly low performance for Hispanic, White, and English Language Learner students. However, the school's Asian student population ranks in the top 10% of Texas high schools, indicating significant disparities in academic achievement among different student subgroups. Additionally, Lee High School has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, which may contribute to its overall academic challenges.

Despite these challenges, Lee High School has shown improvement in its four-year graduation rate, increasing from 91.6% in 2019-2020 to 95.5% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average. This positive trend suggests the school is making progress in supporting students to successfully complete their high school education. However, the school's STAAR EOC proficiency rates remain consistently lower than the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District and the state averages across all subject areas, indicating the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic disparities among its student population.

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.
