Summary

Caprock High School in Amarillo, TX, is a large, comprehensive high school serving 2,058 students in grades 9-12 within the Amarillo Independent School District (Isd). The school serves a predominantly low socio-economic status population, with approximately 74-76% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. Academically, Caprock is a 2-star school (out of 5), placing it in the 41st percentile statewide, which represents a solid, middle-of-the-pack institution within Texas.

When compared to its primary comprehensive high school peers in the district, Caprock’s profile is defined by a few stark contrasts. The school’s most significant academic differentiator is a persistent and severe weakness in Algebra I, with a proficiency rate of 29.2% in 2025-2026, dramatically lower than the district average of 55.9% and the state average of 54.0%. This is the lowest among the four main Amarillo ISD high schools, including Amarillo High School (49.9%) and Tascosa High School (33.8%). Interestingly, Palo Duro High School, located just 3.5 miles away with a similar demographic profile, significantly outperforms Caprock in Algebra I (61.1% vs. 29.2%), suggesting a specific instructional strategy for math that Caprock has not yet adopted.

Despite the math challenges, Caprock performs at or above the state average in Biology (67.8% vs. state 70.5%) and U.S. History (71.9% vs. state 70.2%), showing the school is capable of delivering instruction that meets state standards in non-math subjects. The school is notably effective for its core demographic, earning 3-star ratings for Hispanic Students, Low Socio-Economic Status Students, and English Language Learners. However, it struggles significantly with Gifted and Talented Students (1-star, 19th percentile), indicating a need for more robust programming for its highest-achieving students. Caprock’s graduation rate has been volatile, hitting a high of 95.0% in 2023-2024 but dropping to 86.3% the year prior, unlike the more stable rates seen at Amarillo High (97.1%) and Tascosa (91.5%).

On 04-28-11, We passed Caprock High School in a funeral procession for my Father. The family of James Chambers would like to send thanks to the ball team for showing their utmost respect when they knelt down and with hats in hand they bowed their heads. These young men should be commended for honoring my father. You should be very proud of these young men. Thanks again
