Summary:
The 79347 zip code area is home to 4 schools in the Muleshoe Independent School District (ISD), including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. These schools serve a predominantly Hispanic student population, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population.
Muleshoe High School stands out as a strong performer, with a high 4-year graduation rate of 98.9% and low dropout rate of 0.0%. The school also exceeds the district and state averages on STAAR End-of-Course exams in several subjects. In contrast, Watson J.H., the district's middle school, has the lowest statewide ranking among the schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, and its academic performance on STAAR tests is significantly below the district and state averages.
The elementary schools, Dillman Elementary and Mary Deshazo Elementary, serve a high-need student population, with over 90% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While these schools have relatively high per-student spending, they also have room for improvement in their academic performance, as indicated by their STAAR test scores. Overall, the data suggests that the Muleshoe ISD faces significant challenges in ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students in the 79347 zip code area.
