Summary

Chapin High School is a public high school in El Paso, Texas, serving 1,815 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the El Paso Independent School District, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating its performance is below average compared to other districts in the state.

Chapin High School has seen some improvements in recent years, with its four-year graduation rate increasing from 82.1% in 2020-2021 to 84.4% in 2022-2023. However, this rate is still slightly below the state average. The school's dropout rate has fluctuated, ranging from 2.7% to 8.4%, which is a concern. Chapin High School's performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams is mixed, with the school performing better than the district in some subjects but consistently lagging behind the state average in others, particularly in Algebra I, English I Reading, and English II Reading.

When compared to other high schools in the area, such as Transmountain Early College High School, which is also in the El Paso ISD, Chapin High School generally performs worse on key metrics like test scores, graduation rates, and dropout rates. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (72.12%) likely contributes to these challenges, as high-poverty schools often face unique obstacles that can impact student achievement. Chapin High School should focus on addressing its low test scores, high dropout rates, and uneven performance across student subgroups to improve its overall school quality.
