Summary

Callisburg High School is a small, rural school in Callisburg, TX, serving 327 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Callisburg Independent School District (Isd). While the school was once a top performer, ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide a decade ago, it has experienced a steady decline and now sits at the 51st percentile, a trend that sets it apart from nearby schools like Lindsay High School, which is on a strong upward trajectory at the 98th percentile.

The most significant academic challenge is in Algebra I, where proficiency has dropped from 56% to just 25.3% over three years—less than half the state average. This decline is a major factor in the school's overall ranking drop. However, the school excels in serving its Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the 91st percentile for this group, which suggests that advanced programs are highly effective. In contrast, performance for the general student population and at-risk subgroups, including Special Education and low socioeconomic status students, has been inconsistent, with rankings swinging dramatically from year to year.

Despite these academic struggles, the school maintains a high graduation rate above 97% and a near-zero dropout rate. This contrast raises questions about the rigor of the curriculum and whether students are being adequately prepared for college or careers. The school's success with its Gifted and Talented program offers a model for improvement, but without significant intervention, Callisburg risks continuing its slide toward the performance levels of lower-performing neighbors like Gainesville High School, which ranks in the 24th percentile.
