Bloomington High School

Summary:

Bloomington High School is a public high school in Bloomington, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 239. The school is part of the Bloomington Independent School District, which is ranked 891 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bloomington High School consistently underperforms compared to nearby high schools like Industrial High School and Calhoun High School. It ranks in the bottom half of Texas high schools, with a 1 or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, and has lower graduation rates, higher dropout rates, and significantly lower test scores across all subject areas compared to the state and district averages. This is despite the school spending more per student ($16,661 in 2020-2021) than some nearby high schools.

The high percentage of students (72.8%) from low socioeconomic backgrounds at Bloomington High School may contribute to the school's academic challenges. While the school performs relatively well for English Language Learner students, it struggles with other subgroups, such as White students, Special Education students, and Gifted and Talented students. To address these issues, the school may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and implement targeted interventions to support the specific needs of its diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
