Summary:
The Ben Bolt-Palito Blanco Independent School District (Isd) in Texas contains a single high school, Ben Bolt-Palito Blanco High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's academic performance has declined in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 987 out of 1,974 Texas high schools in 2024-2025 to 1,474 out of 1,961 in 2022-2023.
While the school's four-year graduation rate of 93.6% is slightly above the state average, its STAAR test scores are generally below the state average across most subjects and grade levels. However, the school does perform better than the state average in English II Reading and Biology. The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 78.46% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024. Despite these challenges, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.7 and per-student spending that is slightly above the state average.
Overall, Ben Bolt-Palito Blanco High School appears to be facing some academic challenges, with a declining statewide ranking and below-average STAAR test scores in many areas. The school's socioeconomic factors may contribute to these challenges, but the district's allocation of resources, such as the low student-teacher ratio and above-average per-student spending, suggest a focus on supporting student learning. Targeted interventions and strategies may be needed to improve the school's overall academic performance and better serve its student population.
