Summary:
The Jim Hogg County Independent School District (Isd) consists of three schools - Hebbronville Elementary, Hebbronville High School, and Hebbronville J H (middle school) - that serve a predominantly Hispanic, low-income student population. While the schools have similar characteristics, they all struggle with consistently low academic performance compared to state averages.
None of the schools in the district stand out as high-performing, with all three receiving 1-2 star ratings from SchoolDigger. Proficiency rates on STAAR tests are below state averages across grade levels and subject areas, particularly in reading and math. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, ranging from 85-88%, suggest significant socioeconomic challenges facing the student population.
Additionally, the lack of racial/ethnic diversity in the student bodies, with Hispanic students making up 95-97% of the enrollment, may limit the educational experiences and perspectives available to students. The per-student spending also varies considerably between the elementary and high school, indicating potential resource disparities within the district. Overall, the data points to systemic challenges in providing a high-quality education to the students of Jim Hogg County Independent School District (Isd).
