Veribest High School stands out for its strong academic performance, with students consistently outperforming state and district averages on STAAR assessments, particularly in Reading and English Language Arts. The school has maintained a high four-year graduation rate of 100% in the last two school years and has very low dropout rates, ranging from 0% to 1.7% over the past few years. Interestingly, the school has a higher percentage of White students (59.71%) compared to the state average, and a lower percentage of Hispanic students (36.69%) compared to the state average. Despite having a relatively high percentage of students (39.57%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the school's performance suggests it is effectively supporting its diverse student population.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Miles High School and Wall High School, Veribest High School stands out for its strong academic performance, even though these nearby schools have a higher percentage of White students and are ranked higher overall. The school's spending per student ($12,658 in 2020-2021) is slightly higher than the state average, which may contribute to its success. While there are some areas for improvement, such as the performance of special education and at-risk students, Veribest High School is providing a quality education to its students.

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.
