Summary:
The Floydada Collegiate Independent School District (Isd) serves 671 students across three schools—one elementary, one middle, and one high school—in a rural Texas area where 65-75% of students are economically disadvantaged, and the district overall holds a 3-star rating (54th percentile).
A B Duncan Collegiate Elementary is the district’s standout performer, earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 72nd percentile statewide. Despite 71% of its students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, it consistently beats state averages in Mathematics across all tested grades and is competitive in Reading. In contrast, Floydada Collegiate J H is a major area of concern: only 12.5% of 7th graders and 27.78% of 6th graders were proficient in Math, and 8th-grade Social Studies proficiency was just 21.95%—all far below state averages. Meanwhile, Floydada Collegiate High School shows a turnaround story, jumping from a 1-star to a 2-star rating and achieving a 95.7% graduation rate with a 0% dropout rate, though its English I and II scores remain below state averages.
Key takeaways include the elementary school’s success as a high-poverty, high-performing model, and the high school’s unusually high spending of $18,886 per student—nearly $6,000 more than the elementary school. This spending disparity raises questions about resource allocation, especially given the middle school’s struggles in Math and Social Studies. The high school also shows inconsistent subject performance, with strong Biology (66.67%) and U.S. History (60.47%) scores but weak English results, suggesting targeted support is needed for college readiness.
