Summary:
The city of Rosharon, Texas, located in Fort Bend County, has only one high school serving grades 7-12 - Fort Bend County Alter. This small school, part of the Fort Bend Independent School District (ISD), has a total enrollment of just 25 students, making it an exceptionally small high school in the area.
Fort Bend County Alter has struggled academically, ranking 1939 out of 1987 Texas high schools and receiving a 0 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in Algebra I and English I Reading are 0%, significantly lower than the 49.02% and 62.02% rates for the Fort Bend ISD, and the 44.73% and 53.77% rates for the state of Texas, respectively. Additionally, the school's 1.3% dropout rate is higher than the district and state averages.
Despite the school's small size, it spends a relatively high $28,220 per student, likely due to the need to maintain resources for a limited number of students. The school's low student-to-teacher ratio of 5:1 suggests a focus on individualized attention, but the academic performance data indicates that this has not translated into improved student outcomes. Overall, Fort Bend County Alter appears to be one of the lowest-performing high schools in the state, and the data highlights the challenges faced by this small, underperforming institution.
