The schools in the 78228 zip code area serve a diverse student population, with Hispanic students making up the majority across the schools. However, the data reveals significant performance gaps, with the highest-performing schools, such as Idea Ingram Hills Academy, outpacing the lower-performing schools, particularly in reading and math proficiency. This disparity appears to be correlated with socioeconomic status, as the schools with the highest percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower academic achievement.
