Houston Heights High School

Houston Heights High School is a public charter high school located in Houston, Texas, serving grades 9-12. Based on the available data, this appears to be the only school in the Houston Heights area. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages across a range of academic metrics, indicating significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly Hispanic student population.

Houston Heights Charter School has struggled with low proficiency rates on state assessments, with only 16.67% of students meeting proficiency in Algebra I compared to the state average of 44.73%, and similarly low performance in other subjects like Biology, English, and U.S. History. The school's four-year graduation rate of 70.9% is also below the state average, and its dropout rate of 8.9% is higher than the state's, indicating that many students are not successfully completing their high school education.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9:1 and moderate spending of $11,938 per student, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and implement more effective strategies to support student learning and success. Given the school's predominantly Hispanic student population, there may also be an opportunity to explore the unique needs and challenges faced by these students and how to better address them.
