High Schools in Cleveland Independent School District (Isd)

The Cleveland Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to two high schools: Cleveland High School and Frederick A Douglass Learning Academy. While Cleveland High School is the larger of the two with an enrollment of 3,310 students, Frederick A Douglass Learning Academy stands out with a significantly higher four-year graduation rate of 96.7% compared to 92.4% at Cleveland High School.

Despite the higher graduation rate, Frederick A Douglass Learning Academy has particularly low proficiency rates in Algebra I (0%) and Biology (0%), significantly below the district and state averages. In contrast, Cleveland High School's STAAR EOC proficiency rates are generally lower than the district and state averages across all subject areas. However, Frederick A Douglass Learning Academy performs better than Cleveland High School in English II Reading and U.S. History.

The data also reveals that Frederick A Douglass Learning Academy has a lower student-teacher ratio of 8.5, compared to 16.7 at Cleveland High School, and a higher per-student spending of $20,803, compared to $10,448 at Cleveland High School. This suggests that the smaller school size and additional resources may contribute to its ability to support and retain students who may have struggled in a traditional high school setting. Both schools serve a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, highlighting the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population in the Cleveland ISD.
