Summary

Texas High School in Texarkana, TX, is a large public high school serving 1,750 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Texarkana Independent School District (Isd), where about two-thirds of students are economically disadvantaged. The school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11:1 and a graduation rate of 90.8%, which consistently outpaces the district average, though its overall state ranking has declined to the 31st percentile (2 stars) in recent years.

A standout finding is the school's exceptional performance with Asian students, ranking 1st out of 556 schools statewide in the 2025-2026 school year, a dramatic improvement from the previous year. However, this contrasts sharply with significant underperformance in serving Special Education students, who rank in the 9th percentile (0 stars), a persistent and worsening trend. Academically, Texas High shows mixed results: it performs near or slightly below state averages in English I & II and U.S. History, but has a critical weakness in Algebra I, where only 18.93% of students are proficient compared to the state average of 54.03%.

Geographically, Texas High sits between two very different schools: Pleasant Grove High School (a 5-star district school ranked in the 84th percentile) significantly outperforms it in every metric, while Liberty-Eylau High School (a 0-star district school ranked in the 12th percentile) is outperformed by Texas High. The school's per-student spending ($11,125) is lower than nearby schools like Pleasant Grove ($12,098) and Redwater High School ($14,844), yet it maintains smaller class sizes. This creates a clear local hierarchy where Texas High occupies a middle tier alongside Hooks High School, while Pleasant Grove and Redwater lead, and Liberty-Eylau and Premier H S Of Texarkana fall behind.
