Bowie Independent School District (Isd)

Summary:

The Bowie Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Bowie Elementary and Bowie Intermediate), 1 middle school (Bowie J H), and 1 high school (Bowie High School).

Bowie High School stands out with a high 4-year graduation rate of 96.6% and strong performance on STAAR EOC exams, particularly in Biology and U.S. History. The school is ranked in the top third of Texas high schools. In contrast, Bowie Intermediate appears to be struggling, with lower test scores and a lower statewide ranking compared to the other schools in the district.

Bowie J H (middle school) is also a standout, excelling in 8th grade STAAR Math, Reading, and Science, with significantly higher proficiency rates than the state averages. The district should focus on understanding the factors contributing to the performance gaps between the schools and implementing targeted interventions to support the lower-performing schools, particularly Bowie Intermediate.
