Jarrell Independent School District (Isd)

The Jarrell Independent School District (ISD) in Texas operates 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district faces challenges, with its overall performance ranking 827 out of 961 school districts in the state and receiving a 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Within the district, Jarrell High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 93.0% and better-than-average performance on some STAAR EOC exams. However, the school's overall statewide ranking is low, at 1395 out of 1974 Texas high schools. In contrast, Jarrell Elementary outperforms the district and state averages on several STAAR Reading and Mathematics exams, ranking higher than the other elementary schools in the district.

The data reveals significant variability in school performance within the Jarrell ISD, with some schools, like Jarrell Elementary and Jarrell High School, performing better than others, such as Igo Elementary and Jarrell Middle School. This suggests the district may need to closely examine the factors contributing to these differences and implement targeted interventions to support the lower-performing schools. Additionally, the high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch across all schools indicate the district faces significant challenges related to economic disadvantage, which likely contributes to the overall lower performance compared to state averages.
