Summary:
Deweyville Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single high school, Deweyville High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has a strong graduation rate and low dropout rate, its overall academic performance has consistently been below the state average, ranking in the bottom half of Texas high schools over the past three years.
Deweyville High School's SchoolDigger rating has remained at 2 out of 5 stars for the past three years, indicating below-average performance compared to other Texas high schools. The school's STAAR test scores are generally lower than the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with proficiency rates ranging from as low as 3.57% in 6th grade math to 60% in 8th grade reading, compared to state averages of 37.68% and 56.39%, respectively. The school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is also mixed, with proficiency rates ranging from 28.57% in Algebra I to 56.41% in English I Reading, compared to state averages of 47.01% and 51.26%, respectively.
Despite these academic challenges, Deweyville High School stands out with its strong 4-year graduation rate of 97.1% and low dropout rate of 1.1% for the 2022-2023 school year, both of which are significantly better than the state averages. Additionally, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.2 to 1, which may allow for more individualized attention and support for students. However, this factor alone does not appear to be driving improved academic performance, and the district may need to closely examine its instructional practices, curriculum, and resource allocation to identify areas for improvement and better support the success of its students.
