Tom Bean High School

Summary:

Tom Bean High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Tom Bean, Texas, with a total enrollment of 211 students. The school stands out in several key areas, including its high graduation rates, low dropout rates, and strong performance for certain student subgroups.

One of the most notable aspects of Tom Bean High School is its predominantly white student population, with 81.52% of students identifying as white. This is significantly higher than the state average and the racial makeup of nearby schools like Anna Academic Achievement Center. However, the school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is mixed, with the school performing well in some subjects but lagging behind in others. Additionally, the school's spending per student has increased in recent years, reaching $12,269 in 2020-2021, which is higher than the state average and the spending per student at some nearby schools.

Despite these challenges, Tom Bean High School has consistently maintained high graduation rates, with a 97.9% four-year graduation rate in the 2022-2023 school year. This is well above the state average and the graduation rates of many nearby schools, such as Bells High School. Additionally, the school has very low dropout rates, with a 0.0% dropout rate in the 2021-2022 school year, which is significantly lower than the state average and the dropout rates of nearby schools. These strong performance metrics may be attributed to the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, which has ranged from 9.5 to 11.5 over the past few years, lower than the ratios at many nearby schools.

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.
