Galveston Independent School District (Isd)


Summary:

The Galveston Independent School District (ISD) in Texas serves 11 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district's schools demonstrate a range of academic performance, with standout schools like Oppe Elementary and Morgan Elementary Magnet School ranking among the top in the state, while others, such as Burnet Elementary, struggle with lower test scores and proficiency rates.

The data reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, which appear to be correlated with socioeconomic factors, as seen in the higher free/reduced lunch rates at lower-performing schools. The district's two magnet schools, Morgan Elementary Magnet School and Aim College & Career Prep, demonstrate stronger academic performance compared to their traditional counterparts, suggesting the magnet school model may be an effective strategy. While Central Middle stands out as the highest-performing middle school, the other two middle schools have significantly lower test scores and rankings, highlighting the need to address this disparity.

Overall, the Galveston Independent School District (ISD) has a mix of high-performing and low-performing schools, with the data suggesting the need for targeted interventions to support student success across all schools, particularly in addressing socioeconomic challenges and replicating the success of the district's magnet schools.
