The Bridges Academy Alter

Summary:

The Bridges Academy Alter is a public high school located in Colleyville, Texas, serving grades 9-12 and part of the Grapevine-Colleyville Independent School District, which is ranked 133 out of 968 districts in the state.

Despite having a relatively small student population of 66 students, The Bridges Academy Alter has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas high schools over the past decade, with significantly lower academic performance compared to the district and state averages. The school's graduation rates have fluctuated, ranging from 73.2% to 93.8%, which is generally lower than the district and state. Additionally, the school's dropout rates have been higher than the district and state, ranging from 0.9% to 9.6% in recent years. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic and low socioeconomic status (SES) students, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Texas high schools, while the White student population has performed relatively better.

Interestingly, The Bridges Academy Alter's academic performance is significantly lower than the nearby high schools, such as Grapevine-Colleyville Collegiate Academy, Iuniversity Prep, Colleyville Heritage High School, and Grapevine High School, which all rank in the top 50% of Texas high schools. The school's small student population and higher per-student spending suggest that factors beyond just resources may be contributing to the school's underperformance, and the school's history of low performance over the past decade indicates the need for targeted interventions and support to address the underlying issues.

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.
