Liberty-Eylau High School

Summary:

Liberty-Eylau High School is a public high school serving 532 students in grades 9-12 in Texarkana, Texas, which is part of the Liberty-Eylau Independent School District. The school faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 58.27% African American, lower graduation rates, higher dropout rates, and consistently underperforming test scores compared to the state and nearby schools.

Liberty-Eylau High School has seen a decline in its four-year graduation rate, dropping from 93.3% in 2019-2020 to 85.3% in 2022-2023, which is lower than the nearby Atlanta High School (95.5%), Queen City High School (100%), and Texas High School (97.6%). The school's dropout rate has also increased, rising from 0.7% in 2017-2018 to 2.1% in 2021-2022, which is higher than the nearby schools. Additionally, Liberty-Eylau High School consistently underperforms the state and district averages in STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams across all subject areas, with its Algebra I proficiency rate at just 20% in 2023-2024, compared to the state average of 44.73%.

The data suggests that Liberty-Eylau High School struggles to close the achievement gap between its African American and White student populations, with its African American students ranking 646 out of 1,069 Texas high schools, while its White students ranked 949 out of 1,576 high schools in 2022-2023. The school's high poverty rate, as indicated by its free and reduced lunch percentages ranging from 60.37% to 76.88% over the past three years, may be a contributing factor to its overall underperformance, which extends beyond its overall student population to its female, male, English Language Learner, and Special Education students as well.

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.
