High Schools in Raymondville Independent School District (Isd)

The Raymondville Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to two high schools: Raymondville High School and Raymondville Options Academic Academy. While both schools serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, their academic performance and outcomes vary significantly.

Raymondville High School stands out as the stronger performer, with a 96% four-year graduation rate that exceeds the state average. The school's test scores are generally above the district and state averages across various STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams, indicating strong academic standards and effective teaching practices. In contrast, Raymondville Options Academic Academy struggles academically, with proficiency rates well below the district and state levels across multiple subject areas and a lower 88.9% graduation rate.

The data also reveals a disparity in funding, with Raymondville Options Academic Academy spending $20,111 per student, compared to $14,760 per student at Raymondville High School. This raises questions about the efficient allocation of resources and the impact on academic outcomes. Further investigation into the factors contributing to the performance differences, such as curriculum, teaching practices, and support services, could provide valuable insights to improve educational outcomes across the district.
