Summary:
The city of Alvord, Texas is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Alvord Elementary, Alvord High School, and Alvord Middle. These schools are part of the Alvord Independent School District (Isd), which is ranked 223 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Alvord Elementary stands out as a consistently high-performing school, ranking in the top 30% of Texas elementary schools over the past 3 years and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students excel in reading, math, and science, often outperforming the state and district averages. In contrast, Alvord Middle has mixed results, with strong performance in 6th-grade reading and 8th-grade Algebra I, but lower scores in 7th-grade math and 8th-grade social studies.
Alvord High School stands out for its exceptional 4-year graduation rate of 95.2% and 0% dropout rate, indicating a strong focus on student success. The high school also performs well above the state average in several STAAR EOC exams, particularly in Biology and English. However, the variation in per-student spending across the schools, ranging from $10,691 to $13,336, suggests the need to further investigate how resources are being allocated and how they impact student outcomes.
