Visd Success Academy

Summary:

Visd Success Academy is a public high school in Victoria, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 273. The school is part of the Victoria Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 801 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Visd Success Academy has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing high schools in Texas, with proficiency rates on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams ranging from 0% to 17.39% in 2023-2024, significantly below the district and state averages. The school's performance is particularly low for subgroups such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, as well as for female, male, and low socioeconomic status students. Visd Success Academy's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 73% to 84.5%, lower than the state average, and its dropout rate has fluctuated between 1.5% and 8.3%, higher than the state and district averages.

In comparison, the nearby Victoria West High School and Victoria East High School, which are also part of the Victoria ISD, have higher STAAR EOC proficiency rates, graduation rates, and lower dropout rates. Even the Victoria Regional Juvenile Justice Center, which serves a specialized population, outperforms Visd Success Academy on several academic metrics. Despite the relatively high per-student spending and student-teacher ratio at Visd Success Academy, these resources do not appear to translate into improved academic outcomes for the school, which faces significant challenges in addressing the unique needs of its predominantly economically disadvantaged and minority student population.

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.
