Sealy High School's performance has fluctuated in recent years, ranking between 808 and 1,079 out of Texas high schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school performs well for Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the top 12% of Texas high schools, but struggles with English Language Learners and At-Risk students, ranking in the bottom 25%. However, Sealy High School maintains a high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 96.1% to 96.7%, which is above the state average.

Compared to nearby high-performing schools like Jordan High School and East Bernard High School, Sealy High School's performance is generally lower, with lower test scores and graduation rates.

Addressing these achievement gaps and providing targeted interventions for struggling subgroups could be key focus areas for the school and district.

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.
