Summary:
The 79411 zip code area of Lubbock, Texas is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Lubbock Independent School District (ISD). While the two Bean Elementary schools show some academic struggles, the real standouts are Slaton Middle and Dupre Academy High School, which rank among the lowest-performing schools in the state.
Slaton Middle and Dupre Academy High School serve predominantly Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student populations, with over 95% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. These schools exhibit significantly lower test scores compared to the Lubbock ISD and Texas averages, with proficiency rates often less than half the state and district levels. Slaton Middle also has a concerning dropout rate of 2.5%, while Dupre Academy High School's dropout rate is an alarming 16.5%.
Despite the higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratios at Dupre Academy High School, the academic performance and graduation outcomes at both Slaton Middle and Dupre Academy High School remain dismal. These stark disparities in educational outcomes within the 79411 zip code area underscore the urgent need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by these schools and their students.
