Del Rio High School

Summary:

Del Rio High School is a public high school located in Del Rio, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,470 students. The school is part of the San Felipe-Del Rio Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 631 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Del Rio High School faces several challenges, including a predominantly Hispanic student population (93.52%), consistently ranking in the bottom half of Texas high schools (between 1,162 and 1,279 out of 1,961 to 1,987), and lower-than-average STAAR EOC test scores compared to the district and state. However, the school maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate (89.6% to 90.3%) and a student-teacher ratio slightly higher than the state average. A significant portion of the student population (60.44% to 64.66%) qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

Compared to nearby schools, Del Rio Early College High School consistently outperforms Del Rio High School in statewide rankings, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and an exceptionally high four-year graduation rate of 99.1%. Additionally, the nearby Blended Academy has an even higher percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (97.09%), indicating an even greater level of economic disadvantage in the area.

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.
