Summary:
Academy High School is the sole high school serving grades 9 through 12 in the Academy Independent School District (Isd), located in Little River Academy, Texas, with a current enrollment of 546 students.
As the only high school in the district, Academy High School stands out for its strong academic performance in several key areas. The school significantly outperforms the state average in Biology (82.73% vs. 70.51%), English II Reading (78.13% vs. 59.88%), and English I Reading (68.79% vs. 55.43%), indicating highly effective English and science programs. It has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for three consecutive years and ranks in the 73rd percentile among Texas high schools. The school also boasts a low student-teacher ratio of 12.4:1, a high graduation rate of 95.5%, and a very low dropout rate of 0.5%, all of which point to a supportive learning environment.
However, a notable area of concern is Algebra I, where the school's proficiency rate of 41.09% falls nearly 13 percentage points below the state average of 54.03%. This "Algebra I gap" is a consistent weakness and represents a critical opportunity for targeted improvement, especially given the school's per-student spending of $10,123. Overall, Academy High School provides a strong education with standout English and science programs, but parents should be aware of the math performance gap and inquire about support for foundational math skills.
