High Schools in Blooming Grove Independent School District (Isd)

The Blooming Grove Independent School District (Isd) is served by a single high school, Blooming Grove High School, which educates 288 students in grades 9-12. This small, rural school has a student-teacher ratio of 14.8:1 and spends $11,529 per student, with nearly half of its students (48.61%) qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school has earned a consistent 3-star rating from the state for three consecutive years, placing it in the upper third of Texas high schools, though its percentile rank has slightly slipped from the 67th to the 62nd percentile.

Blooming Grove High School shows a clear split in academic performance by subject. Its standout strength is in English II Reading, where a projected 80.28% of students will be proficient in 2025-2026—a remarkable 20.4 percentage points above the state average. This represents a dramatic single-year improvement from 59.52% proficiency the year prior, suggesting a highly effective new teaching strategy or curriculum change. The school also consistently outperforms the state in Algebra I, with a 64.38% proficiency rate in 2024-2025 compared to the state's 47.01%. However, the school struggles significantly in Biology, where only 61.05% of students are projected to be proficient in 2025-2026, falling 9.46 points below the state average. English I Reading also remains a weak spot, with proficiency rates hovering just below the state average for two consecutive years.

The school's graduation rate is a solid 93.4%, with a very low dropout rate of 0.7%. The most intriguing finding is the "English II anomaly"—the massive projected jump in reading proficiency that is not mirrored in English I. This suggests the success is specific to that course or grade level, not a school-wide English department trend. Parents should note that while the school excels in math and one English course, it has a clear need for improvement in science and English I. The school's stable 3-star rating indicates reliable, above-average performance, but the slight decline in its state ranking suggests other schools are improving at a faster pace.
