Summary:
The 78344 zip code in Texas is home to two small, predominantly Hispanic schools - Bruni High School and Bruni Middle School, both part of the Webb Consolidated Independent School District. These schools face unique challenges, including small enrollments, high levels of economic disadvantage, and mixed academic performance, but have maintained relatively stable statewide rankings.
Bruni High School, with only 88 students, has a predominantly Hispanic student population (95.45%) and a four-year graduation rate of 84.6%, which is lower than the state average. The school's performance on STAAR end-of-course exams is mixed, with some subjects performing above the state average and others significantly below. Similarly, Bruni Middle School, with just 49 students, also has a predominantly Hispanic student population (95.92%) and a mix of STAAR test results, with some grade levels and subjects performing above the state average and others below.
Both schools serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 79.55% of Bruni High School students and 89.8% of Bruni Middle School students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, the schools have maintained relatively stable statewide rankings, suggesting they are performing reasonably well compared to other schools in Texas. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions will be crucial to support the academic and overall well-being of the students in these small, predominantly Hispanic schools serving economically disadvantaged communities.
