The school's STAAR test scores are generally lower than the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with the exception of the Algebra I end-of-course (EOC) proficiency rate, which is higher than the state average.

These factors suggest that the school serves a predominantly low-income population and may require targeted support and resources to improve academic outcomes.
