Summary:

Levelland High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Levelland, Texas, with a student population of 745. The school is part of the Levelland Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 645 out of 968 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Levelland High School has maintained strong graduation rates, ranging from 91.3% to 95.4% in recent years, which is higher than the state average. The school's dropout rate has also been relatively low, between 0.1% and 0.6%. However, the school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams has been mixed, with the school outperforming the state in some subjects but underperforming in others. Interestingly, the school's African American and Migrant student populations have performed relatively well, ranking in the top half of Texas high schools.

When compared to the nearby Sundown High School, Levelland High School has consistently underperformed on STAAR EOC exams and has a lower four-year graduation rate. This suggests that Levelland High School may have opportunities to learn from the practices and strategies employed by Sundown High School. Additionally, Levelland High School's increased spending per student, from $10,963 to $12,016 in recent years, could indicate a commitment to providing resources and support for its diverse student population, which is predominantly Hispanic (71.68%) with significant percentages of White (23.36%) and African American (4.03%) students.

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.
