Plano East Senior High School

Summary:

Plano East Senior High School is a public high school serving 3,082 students in grades 9-12 in Plano, Texas, which is part of the highly-ranked Plano Independent School District. The school has a diverse student body, with a racial makeup of 24.63% White, 10.25% African American, 30.18% Hispanic, and 31.41% Asian students.

Plano East Senior High School is a strong academic performer, consistently ranking among the top high schools in Texas with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts impressive graduation rates, with 93.9% of students graduating in 4 years, significantly higher than the state average. Students also excel on STAAR End-of-Course exams, outperforming the district and state in most subject areas. However, the school faces challenges in addressing performance gaps among its Hispanic, English Language Learner, and low-socioeconomic status students, who lag behind their peers.

Compared to nearby schools, Plano East Senior High School performs well, outranking Wylie High School and Academy High School. But it falls behind top-performing schools in the region, such as Lovejoy High School and Allen High School, which have even higher academic achievement and graduation rates. Additionally, the school's declining spending per student, from $9,252 in 2018-2019 to $8,235 in 2020-2021, may be a concern that warrants further investigation.

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.
