Summary:

Winters High School is a public high school in Winters, Texas, serving 148 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Winters Independent School District, which is ranked 569 out of 968 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winters High School has several notable strengths, including consistently high graduation rates ranging from 96.2% to 100% over the past five years, and very low dropout rates between 0% and 1.1%. However, the school's academic performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams is mixed, with strong results in English II Reading and U.S. History, but significantly below-average proficiency rates in Algebra I and Biology compared to the state. The school also struggles with the academic performance of Special Education and Low Socioeconomic Status students, ranking in the bottom 25% of Texas high schools for these subgroups, despite performing well for English Language Learners.

Compared to nearby schools like Jim Ned High School and Ballinger High School, Winters High School performs significantly worse on STAAR EOC exams, particularly in Algebra I and Biology. This suggests that the school may need to focus on improving its core academic offerings to better prepare students for these assessments. Additionally, Winters High School has seen a decline in racial diversity, with a decrease in the percentage of White students and an increase in Hispanic students, which is an interesting trend to monitor.

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.
