Summary:
Waskom Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has a single high school, Waskom High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's performance is mixed, with strengths in some subject areas but challenges in others compared to the district and state averages.
Waskom ISD serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with 61.51% of Waskom High School students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. The school's academic performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams varies, with higher proficiency rates in Biology but lower rates in Algebra I, English I and II Reading, and U.S. History. However, Waskom High School maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 93.9% and a low dropout rate of 0.3%, indicating that the school is effective in supporting students to complete their high school education.
Despite the academic performance challenges, Waskom High School appears to have access to adequate resources, with a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.7 and higher-than-average per-student spending of $14,128. This suggests that there may be opportunities to optimize the use of these resources to improve student outcomes in specific subject areas and address the socioeconomic factors that may be contributing to the observed performance disparities.
