Latexo High School

Summary:

Latexo High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Latexo, Texas, with a total enrollment of 199 students. The school is part of the Latexo Independent School District, which is ranked 411 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Latexo High School consistently performs above the state average on STAAR tests, particularly in subjects like Biology, English I and II Reading, and U.S. History, with proficiency rates often 10-20 percentage points higher than the state average. The school has maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 86.4% to 97.1% over the past five years, which are above the state average. Additionally, Latexo High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 7.7 to 9.7 over the past three years, and spends more per student ($13,249 in 2020-2021) compared to the nearby schools, such as Elkhart High School, Lovelady J H High School, and Slocum High School.

While Latexo High School's overall academic performance is impressive, the school's rankings for different student subgroups show some racial disparities. The school ranks very highly for Hispanic students (top 5% in the state) but lower for white students (top 30-35% in the state). Additionally, the school's performance for special education students is an area of concern, as it ranks in the bottom 1% of Texas high schools for this subgroup. However, Latexo High School's strong academic performance, despite its relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, is a testament to the quality of education and the dedication of the school's staff and community.

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.
