Summary:

Coahoma High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Coahoma, Texas, with a student population of 271. The school is part of the Coahoma Independent School District, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Coahoma High School has several notable strengths, including a consistently high four-year graduation rate of 100% and a 0% dropout rate in recent years. However, the school's academic performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams is mixed, with strong results in some subjects like English I and II Reading, but struggles in others, such as Algebra I and U.S. History, where proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state average. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with its Gifted and Talented students performing relatively well, but its Hispanic, White, and Low Socioeconomic Status students ranking in the bottom half or bottom quarter of Texas high schools.

Compared to nearby schools, Coahoma High School's performance is generally weaker than that of Forsan High School, which is part of the Forsan Independent School District. Forsan High School consistently outperforms Coahoma High School on various metrics, including test scores, graduation rates, and student-teacher ratios. Additionally, Coahoma High School's statewide ranking has been declining over the years, suggesting that the school's performance may be declining relative to other schools in the state. These challenges may be partly due to the school's higher percentage of students from low-income families, as well as potential staffing and resource constraints.

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.
