Lueders-Avoca High School

Summary:

Lueders-Avoca High School is a small public high school in Avoca, Texas, serving just 25 students in grades 9-12. As one of the smallest high schools in the state, Lueders-Avoca faces unique challenges and opportunities compared to its larger neighboring schools, including Hawley High School, Anson High School, and Stamford High School.

Over the past few years, Lueders-Avoca High School has seen a significant shift in its racial demographics, going from a majority Hispanic student body to a majority White student body. However, the school's academic performance has been inconsistent, with rankings fluctuating between the bottom and middle tiers of Texas high schools and test scores generally below the state average, despite strong graduation rates. Socioeconomic challenges also play a role, as Lueders-Avoca has a much higher percentage of students from low-income backgrounds compared to the nearby schools.

While Lueders-Avoca's small size may offer advantages in terms of personalized attention and support, the school's overall performance lags behind its larger counterparts. Addressing the unique needs of Lueders-Avoca's student population, aligning curriculum and instruction with assessment practices, and leveraging the school's small size to its advantage will be crucial for improving educational outcomes and supporting the success of this rural community. As part of the Hawley Independent School District, Anson Independent School District, and Stamford Independent School District, Lueders-Avoca High School's future will be shaped by the broader educational landscape and the resources available to small, rural schools in Texas.

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.
