Summary:
The 77038 zip code area in Texas is home to 11 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, primarily within the Aldine Independent School District (ISD), a low-performing district ranked 790 out of 968 in the state.
While the majority of the schools in the area struggle academically, with many ranking in the bottom quartile of their respective categories in Texas, two standout schools stand out. Blanson CTE High School is ranked 189 out of 1,987 Texas high schools, with a 5-star rating and an impressive 99.7% four-year graduation rate, outperforming the district and state averages in STAAR EOC test scores. Similarly, Harmony School of Advancement-Houston, a public charter school, is ranked 548 out of 1,987 Texas high schools, with a 4-star rating and a 99.3% four-year graduation rate, exceeding the district and state averages in STAAR EOC test scores, particularly in U.S. History.
The schools in the 77038 zip code serve a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic and African American students, and high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.59% to 98.19%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the area. The data suggests that the Aldine ISD faces systemic challenges in providing equitable educational opportunities for all students, and the presence of public charter schools, such as Harmony School of Advancement-Houston and Harmony School of Enrichment - Houston, suggests that school choice may play a role in addressing these challenges.
