Summary:
The 77833 zip code area is home to 7 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, all part of the Brenham Independent School District. While the district is ranked 478 out of 968 in Texas, the schools in this area show a mix of performance, with some standouts and others struggling to meet state and district averages.
Brenham High School stands out with a high 4-year graduation rate of 92.8% and a low dropout rate of 1.6%, but its STAAR test scores are generally below the district and state averages. In contrast, Brenham J.H. middle school has exceptional STAAR Algebra I scores, with 98.41% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state. However, the school's other STAAR scores are more mixed.
The data also reveals significant performance gaps between the schools, with Krause Elementary and Trinity Charter School - Brenham Campus lagging behind the district and state averages on STAAR tests, while Brenham Elementary and Alton Elementary are performing better. This suggests the need to investigate the factors contributing to these disparities and implement targeted interventions, particularly in addressing the challenges faced by students from disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across the schools.
