Summary:
The Deweyville Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates two schools: Deweyville High School and Deweyville Elementary. The district is ranked 682 out of 961 districts in Texas and both schools have a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger.
While Deweyville High School stands out for its exceptional 97.1% 4-year graduation rate and low 1.1% dropout rate, the schools in the district generally struggle academically. Both Deweyville High School and Deweyville Elementary perform well below the state average on STAAR/EOC assessments, with only 3.57% of Deweyville High School students proficient in 6th grade math compared to the state's 37.68%. The high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, 63.77% at Deweyville Elementary and 54.58% at Deweyville High, suggest the district faces significant socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting academic performance.
Despite the academic struggles, Deweyville High School allocates more resources per student ($13,674) compared to Deweyville Elementary ($11,841), and has a lower student-teacher ratio of 8.2 versus 12.5. However, this additional investment does not appear to be translating to stronger outcomes across the board. Overall, the Deweyville ISD schools face significant hurdles, but the high graduation and low dropout rates at the high school level are bright spots that indicate the district is succeeding in supporting students through to completion.
