Huntington High School

Summary:

Huntington High School is a public high school in Huntington, Texas, serving 499 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Huntington Independent School District, which is ranked 422 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Huntington High School stands out for its consistently high graduation rates, ranging from 96.5% to 99.1% over the past five years, which are well above the state average. The school also has very low dropout rates, from 0.0% to 0.9%, significantly lower than the state average. On STAAR End-of-Course exams, Huntington High School generally performs better than the state and district in English I Reading, English II Reading, and U.S. History, though its performance in Algebra I and Biology is more on par with the district and state. Interestingly, the school's racial subgroups show varied performance, with African American and Hispanic students outperforming the state average, while white student performance is more mixed.

Compared to nearby schools like Zavalla High School and Lufkin High School, Huntington High School outperforms them on STAAR exams, particularly in English and U.S. History. However, the school's performance in Algebra I and Biology is more comparable to these nearby schools. Additionally, Huntington High School's Gifted and Talented program is an area of concern, as the school ranks in the bottom half of Texas high schools in this category.

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.
