Rains High School

Summary:

Rains High School is a public high school located in Emory, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 507. The school is part of the Rains Independent School District, which is ranked 703 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Rains High School has a predominantly white student population, with 71.4% of students identifying as white in the 2022-2023 school year, which is higher than the state average and most of the nearby schools like Alba-Golden High School and Fruitvale High School. The school has seen a steady increase in its four-year graduation rate, reaching 99.1% in the 2022-2023 school year, significantly higher than the state average and most of the nearby schools. Additionally, Rains High School has a very low dropout rate, ranging from 0.2% to 0.6% over the past few years, lower than the state average and most of the nearby schools.

However, Rains High School's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is mixed, with the school performing above the state average in some subjects, such as English I and II Reading, but lagging behind in others, like Algebra I and Biology. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.81% to 55.23% over the past few years, higher than the state average and some of the nearby schools like Edgewood High School. These factors suggest that the school may need to address socioeconomic factors and target interventions to improve academic achievement across all subject areas.

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.
