Best Public Schools in Zip Code 78619


Summary:

The 78619 zip code area is home to two schools: Cypress Springs Elementary, a high-performing elementary school, and Pathfinder Camp, a lower-performing public charter high school. While Cypress Springs ranks in the top 10% of Texas elementary schools, Pathfinder Camp struggles, ranking in the bottom 20% of Texas high schools.

Cypress Springs Elementary boasts consistently high test scores, with over 80% of students proficient or better in reading and over 60% proficient or better in math across multiple grade levels. The school serves a relatively affluent student population, with only 3.76% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, Pathfinder Camp has significantly lower test scores, with only 20-40% of students proficient or better in core subjects like Algebra I, Biology, and English I.

The data suggests a potential funding disparity, with Pathfinder Camp spending significantly more per student ($19,871) compared to the state average, yet still underperforming academically. This raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the factors contributing to the school's low performance, which may be related to its status as a public charter school and the unique challenges it faces in terms of resources, staffing, and student support.
