Summary

Success High School in Fort Worth, TX, is a small alternative high school within the Fort Worth Independent School District (Isd), serving 585 students in grades 9-12, with over 84% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges in the area.

This school functions as a "last chance" option for students at risk of not graduating, but its core metrics are among the lowest in the region. The graduation rate is just 31.9%, compared to 94.8% at Paschal High School and 90.3% at Arlington Heights High School. The dropout rate is 17.7%, which is over 5 times higher than the district average and nearly 60 times higher than some nearby schools. Academic proficiency on STAAR exams is dramatically low, with only 4.29% of students passing English I Reading, compared to the state average of 55.43%. However, there is a notable exception: in U.S. History, 61.73% of students passed, outperforming the district average of 58.53%, suggesting a potential strength in that subject area.

Despite spending significantly more per student ($16,994) than nearby schools like Paschal ($9,447), Success High School has a very high student-to-teacher ratio of 28.8:1, which is a critical contradiction. The school shows some pockets of effectiveness, particularly with English Language Learners, who ranked in the 57th percentile statewide in 2024-2025. Compared to other alternative schools like Premier H S Of Fort Worth (30.6% graduation rate) and Richard Milburn Academy Fort Worth (18.3% graduation rate), Success High School faces similar struggles but has a higher dropout rate than Premier. The story here is not simple failure, but a school grappling with the most difficult educational circumstances, where even modest successes are hard-won.
