Crystal City Independent School District (Isd)

The Crystal City Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving a predominantly Hispanic student population. Unfortunately, the district as a whole is performing well below the state average on key metrics such as test scores, graduation rates, and dropout rates, with no clear standout schools in the district.

Across the district, the student population is overwhelmingly Hispanic, ranging from 96.58% to 100% at the individual schools. Test scores on the STAAR (State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness) exams are consistently low, with the percentage of students proficient or better in Algebra I at Crystal City High School being just 18.8%, compared to the state average of 44.73%. The district also struggles with graduation and dropout rates, with Crystal City High School having a 92.2% four-year graduation rate, slightly below the state average, and a 4.7% dropout rate.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 82.03% at Crystal City High School to 95.82% at Dr. Tomas Rivera Elementary, suggest significant socioeconomic challenges facing the student population. This raises concerns about equity and the ability of the Crystal City Independent School District (Isd) to provide equal educational opportunities for all students. Overall, the data paints a concerning picture of the district, with the schools consistently underperforming on a variety of metrics compared to the state average.
