Summary:
The Diboll Independent School District (Isd) in Texas contains two high schools serving grades 9-12, offering a clear contrast between a traditional comprehensive high school and a specialized alternative campus.
Diboll High School is the district's primary high school with 480 students and stands out for its strong academic performance and rapid improvement. It outperforms the state average in four of five core subjects, including Algebra I (59.8% vs. 54.03%), Biology (73.28% vs. 70.51%), and both English I and II Reading. The school has shown remarkable growth, jumping from a 2-star rating to a 3-star rating and rising from the 48th to the 62nd percentile in just two years. Its graduation rate is an impressive 99.2% with a dropout rate of only 0.4%. In contrast, Stubblefield Learning Center serves just 9 students in grades 11-12 as an alternative campus, likely for credit recovery or disciplinary reasons. Its graduation rate is 58.3% with a 17.6% dropout rate, and its only available test score in U.S. History shows 16.67% proficiency, far below the state average of 70.17%.
Key takeaways include that the district effectively manages two very different educational missions: Diboll High School excels as a traditional high school, while Stubblefield provides intensive support for at-risk students. The most dramatic finding is Diboll High School's Algebra I proficiency jumping from 17% to 59.8% year-over-year, suggesting a highly effective intervention. U.S. History is a relative weakness for Diboll High School, where it lags behind the state average. Stubblefield's higher per-student spending ($13,625 vs. $11,967) reflects the intensive resources needed for its specialized population. Overall, the district's 2-star rating is likely pulled down by Stubblefield's metrics, masking Diboll High School's strong performance.
