Summary:
The 78118 zip code area in Texas is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Karnes City Independent School District (ISD). These schools serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, with higher percentages of Hispanic students and lower percentages of White students compared to the state average.
Among the standout schools, Karnes City High School has a fluctuating statewide ranking and a lower-than-average 4-year graduation rate of 61.8%. The school's performance on STAAR end-of-course exams is generally below the state and district averages. In contrast, Karnes City J H (Middle School) stands out for its relatively high proficiency rate on the Algebra I end-of-course exam, despite its overall below-average performance on STAAR exams and declining statewide ranking over the past few years.
The schools in the 78118 zip code area face socioeconomic challenges, with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 56.84% to 70.14%. Despite higher per-student spending and student-teacher ratios compared to the state average, the academic performance of these schools remains below the state and district averages, suggesting a potential imbalance in resource allocation or ineffective utilization of available resources. These findings highlight the need for targeted strategies to address the unique challenges faced by the schools in this area and support student success.
