Best Public Schools in Hitchcock, TX


Summary:

The Hitchcock Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates four schools serving students from elementary through high school, but the district as a whole is struggling to provide a high-quality education. According to the data, none of the schools in Hitchcock ISD are performing at or above state averages, with all schools receiving low ratings and rankings compared to their peers across Texas.

Hitchcock High School, the district's only high school, has a 1-star rating and ranks in the bottom 30% of Texas high schools. Its test scores are significantly below state averages, with just 7.86% of students proficient in Algebra I and 48.63% proficient in English II Reading, compared to state averages of 44.73% and 59.82% respectively. The district's Hitchcock ISD middle and elementary schools also have 1-star and 0-star ratings, ranking in the bottom 10% of their respective school types in Texas.

While the schools in Hitchcock ISD have higher-than-average spending per student and relatively low student-teacher ratios, these additional resources have not translated to improved academic performance. The district serves a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 77-87% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which likely contributes to the schools' struggles. Addressing the root causes of the district's persistent underperformance will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach focused on improving teaching and learning.
