Summary:
The Goliad Independent School District (Isd) is served by a single high school, Goliad High School, which educates 415 students in grades 9-12 and has earned a 3-star rating from Schooldigger.
Goliad High School shows a clear strength in English I Reading, where 81.72% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year, outperforming the state average by over 26 percentage points. However, performance in English II Reading dropped to 60.71%, creating a 21-point gap that suggests a need to examine the curriculum or instruction for that exam. The school’s state ranking has improved from the 59th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 67th percentile in 2025-2026, indicating positive overall progress. In other subjects, U.S. History (72.63% proficient) and Algebra I (56.72%) slightly exceeded state averages, while Biology (67.42%) fell just below the state mark. The school maintains a strong graduation rate of 95.9% and a very low dropout rate of 0.2%, reflecting effective student retention.
Year-over-year performance in key subjects is inconsistent—U.S. History proficiency jumped from 66.06% to 72.63% between 2024-2025 and 2025-2026, while English II Reading declined from 65.38% to 60.71% over the same period. This volatility may indicate that success depends heavily on specific teachers or student cohorts. Because Goliad High School is the only high school in the district, its test scores directly reflect the district’s performance, making it a pure measure of the school’s educational output. With a student-teacher ratio of 13.2:1 and spending of $15,051 per student, the school provides a supportive environment, though parents may want to explore why English II and Biology scores lag behind the school’s otherwise strong results.
