Linda Tutt High School

Summary:

Linda Tutt High School is a small public high school serving grades 9-12 in Sanger, Texas, part of the Sanger Independent School District. With just 24 students, it is one of the smallest high schools in the state.

While Linda Tutt High School benefits from an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio and high per-student spending, its academic performance has been inconsistent. The school's graduation rates have ranged from 44.4% to 78.9% in recent years, lower than the 97.6% rate at Sanger High School and the 98.2% rate at Aubrey High School. Similarly, Linda Tutt High School has had relatively high dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 22.2%, compared to 0.4% at Sanger High School and 0.7% at Aubrey High School.

The school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams has also been mixed, with 63% proficient or better in U.S. History in 2022-2023, compared to 69% for the Sanger ISD and 71% statewide. Additionally, Linda Tutt High School serves a high percentage of students from low-income families, with 38.89% to 68.42% receiving free or reduced-price lunch over the past few years, higher than the 39.54% rate at Sanger High School and the 29.14% rate at Aubrey High School. These factors suggest that the school faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may contribute to its academic struggles, despite the district's high level of investment in the school.

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.
