Summary:
The 77563 zip code area is home to 4 schools that are part of the Hitchcock Independent School District (ISD), including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the high school has a strong 4-year graduation rate, the academic performance across the district is generally well below the state average, particularly in math and reading. Additionally, the schools serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, ranging from 77% to 87%.
Hitchcock High School stands out with a 98.1% 4-year graduation rate, but its STAAR end-of-course exam performance, especially in Algebra I, is significantly below the state average. In contrast, Stewart Elementary has the lowest performance on STAAR reading and math assessments compared to the other schools, with only 21.37% of 3rd graders proficient in reading, far below the state average of 48.85%.
The schools in the 77563 zip code area face significant challenges, including consistently low academic performance, high rates of economic disadvantage, and potential funding disparities. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve educational outcomes for all students in the Hitchcock ISD.
