Best Public Schools in Waxahachie, TX


Summary:

The city of Waxahachie, Texas is home to 19 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, and 4 high schools, all part of the Waxahachie Independent School District (ISD), except for two public charter schools - Life H S Waxahachie and Faith Family Master Academy.

A few schools stand out in the district, including Waxahachie Global High School, which consistently ranks among the top 5% of high schools in Texas, and the elementary schools Simpson Elementary and Felty Elementary, which perform in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools. The public charter Life H S Waxahachie also outperforms the district average on many metrics. However, there is a significant gap in performance between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing ones, such as Wedgeworth Elementary and Clift Elementary, suggesting the district may need to examine resource allocation and best practices to raise the bar across all schools.

The racial composition of the student populations varies widely, and there appears to be a correlation between higher minority enrollment and lower academic performance, an area that warrants further investigation. Additionally, the relationship between spending and outcomes is not always clear, as some high-spending schools struggle academically, indicating the district should examine how resources are being utilized to maximize their impact.
