Brewer High School

Summary:

Brewer High School is a public high school located in Fort Worth, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,183 students. The school is part of the Fort Worth Independent School District, which is ranked 441 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Brewer High School faces several challenges, including below-average academic performance, socioeconomic disadvantages, and inconsistent outcomes across different student subgroups. The school's statewide ranking has consistently placed it in the bottom half of Texas high schools, ranking between 1121 and 1199 out of around 1,900 schools over the past several years, and it has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other Texas high schools. While Brewer High School performs better than some of the nearby alternative and charter schools, such as Premier H.S. - Fort Worth (Jacksboro) and Transition Center, it lags behind the traditional public high schools in the area, like Lake Worth High School and Castleberry High School, in terms of academic performance and statewide rankings.

Brewer High School's diverse student population, with 38.16% White, 10.9% African American, and 44.66% Hispanic students, is a notable aspect of the school. However, the school's rankings for different student subgroups vary widely, with Native American students performing relatively well but other subgroups, such as White, multi-racial, and special education students, struggling significantly. This suggests that the school may need to address the unique needs of its diverse student population more effectively. Additionally, Brewer High School has a relatively high percentage of students (around 55%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant socioeconomic disadvantage that may contribute to the school's academic challenges.

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.

Open Quote I attended this school my freshman and sophomore year and absolutely hated it. The teachers didn't care whether their students were passing. The only thing I enjoyed about Brewer was the counselor I spoke with and a few of the administrators. I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone. Close Quote

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.
