Lockhart Pride High School

Summary:

Lockhart Pride High School is a small public high school serving grades 8-12 in Lockhart, Texas, with a total enrollment of just 61 students. As part of the Lockhart Independent School District, which is ranked 740 out of 968 districts in the state, Lockhart Pride High School faces significant challenges in providing a quality education to its students.

With a very low student-teacher ratio ranging from 11.2 to 15.2, Lockhart Pride High School consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of Texas high schools, with a ranking between 1649 and 1872 out of around 1,900 schools. Its performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is also significantly below the district and state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 0% to 41% across different subjects and years. This underperforming academic performance is particularly concerning given the school's high poverty and minority student population, with 77.05% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch and 72.13% of the student body being Hispanic.

In comparison, the nearby Lockhart High School, which is also part of the Lockhart Independent School District, has higher test scores, graduation rates, and a lower dropout rate, despite serving a similar demographic population. This suggests that Lockhart Pride High School may be facing unique challenges in providing a quality education to its students, and that targeted interventions and support may be needed to improve student outcomes and better prepare them for success after graduation.

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.

I went to Lockhart PRIDE High School and because of the self paced classes I was able to catch up and graduate ahead of my class. I passed the TAKS tests my first time, and enjoyed the different teachers and staff as well as the numerous classes i was offered. Close Quote

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.
