Summary:
The Fannindel Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to a single high school, Fannindel High School, which serves a diverse student population of just 64 students. While the school's small size and relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 6.1 could be seen as advantages, the data reveals significant academic challenges, with the school's performance on standardized tests consistently lagging behind state averages.
Fannindel High School's proficiency rates on STAAR and end-of-course exams are particularly concerning, with only 10-11% of 7th and 8th-grade students meeting proficiency in reading and math, compared to state averages of 52-54% and 32-40%, respectively. The school's performance on other subject-area exams, such as Algebra I, Biology, and U.S. History, also falls well below state benchmarks, with proficiency rates ranging from 8.33% to 50%. However, the school's four-year graduation rate of 84.6% and 0.0% dropout rate suggest that it is able to retain and graduate a significant portion of its students, despite the academic challenges.
The high percentage of students (84.38%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Fannindel High School indicates a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While the school's per-student spending of $16,409 is higher than the state average, the data suggests that the school may be allocating additional resources to support its economically disadvantaged students. Overall, the insights from the data highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to address the academic performance gaps at Fannindel High School and ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.
