Best Public Schools in Zip Code 79821


Summary:

The 79821 zip code area in Texas is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Canutillo Independent School District (ISD) and the Anthony Independent School District (ISD). While the schools generally serve a predominantly Hispanic student population with high rates of economic disadvantage, there are notable differences in their performance and rankings within the state.

Bill Childress Elementary stands out as a relatively higher-performing school, with strong results on STAAR reading and math assessments compared to district and state averages, especially in the upper elementary grades. In contrast, the other schools in the 79821 zip code area tend to perform below state averages on STAAR assessments, with significant gaps in reading and math proficiency. Anthony High School is a bright spot, with relatively strong performance on STAAR EOC assessments and a high 4-year graduation rate of 96.2%.

Across the schools, there are common challenges, such as lower proficiency rates on STAAR Spanish assessments and high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 76.77% to 80.4%. These factors suggest potential barriers to educational equity and access that the districts and school leaders will need to address to support student success and close performance gaps in the 79821 zip code area.
