Summary:
The Erath Excels Academy Inc district in Texas operates two public charter high schools: Coastal Horizons Academy (grades 7-12) and Huston Academy (grades 9-12). While both schools have similar graduation and dropout rates, Huston Academy consistently outperforms Coastal Horizons Academy on various academic metrics, including statewide ranking, test scores, spending per student, and student-teacher ratio.
Huston Academy is the standout school in the district, ranking 1474 out of 1974 Texas high schools, compared to Coastal Horizons Academy's ranking of 1905. Huston Academy also has significantly higher proficiency rates on STAAR end-of-course exams, particularly in Biology, English II Reading, and U.S. History. Additionally, Huston Academy spends nearly twice as much per student ($12,473) compared to Coastal Horizons Academy ($6,436) and has a lower student-teacher ratio of 8.5, compared to Coastal Horizons Academy's ratio of 21.
However, both schools in the Erath Excels Academy Inc district struggle with low graduation rates (65.5%) and high dropout rates (8.0%), which are significantly worse than the state averages. The overall poor performance of the schools, as evidenced by their low statewide rankings and test scores, suggests that the district may not be providing adequate support and resources to help improve student outcomes.
