Summary:
The 75936 zip code in Texas is home to two schools: Chester High School and Chester Elementary, both part of the Chester Independent School District (Isd). While both schools have a predominantly white student population, Chester Elementary stands out as the stronger performer, with higher academic achievement, a higher statewide ranking, and better student-teacher ratios.
Chester Elementary has seen steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 2,532 out of 4,581 Texas elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 977 out of 4,675 in 2023-2024, with its star rating increasing from 2 to 4 out of 5. In contrast, Chester High School has generally underperformed on STAAR tests compared to state averages, though it maintains a high graduation rate of 95% and a low dropout rate of 0%.
Both schools serve a population with lower socioeconomic status, with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. While Chester Elementary outperforms Chester High School in most areas, the district as a whole could benefit from further analysis and targeted interventions to improve student outcomes, particularly in mathematics, where both schools fall short of state averages.
