Summary:
The city of Del Rio, Texas is home to 16 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 5 high schools, all part of the San Felipe-Del Rio Consolidated Independent School District. The district is ranked 606 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
A few schools stand out in the data: Del Rio Early College High School ranks 216 out of 1,974 Texas high schools and has a 4-star rating, with high graduation rates and strong test scores. Heritage Academy of Del Rio, a public charter high school, ranks 670 out of 1,974 Texas high schools and has a 100% graduation rate. Buena Vista Elementary has some of the highest reading and math proficiency rates among the elementary schools.
The data highlights significant performance gaps between the highest-performing and lowest-performing schools in the district. Graduation rates range from 54.6% at Premier H.S. of Del Rio to 100% at Heritage Academy of Del Rio. Test scores also vary widely, with some schools performing much better than the district and state averages. Many of the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. While per-student spending ranges from $5,165 to $12,862, the highest-performing schools are not necessarily the highest-spending, suggesting other factors play a significant role in student outcomes.
