Summary:
The Johnson City Independent School District (Isd) is home to a single high school, Lyndon B Johnson High School, which serves grades 9 through 12 with a total enrollment of 255 students. This small, rural school offers a personalized learning environment, reflected in its low student-teacher ratio of 11.3:1 and higher-than-average per-student spending of $14,598. The district itself is ranked 299th out of 951 in Texas, earning a 3-star rating, while the school has shown resilience by rebounding from a 62nd percentile ranking in 2024-2025 to a 70th percentile (4-star) ranking in 2025-2026.
Academically, Lyndon B Johnson High School presents a clear split in performance. The school consistently outperforms state averages in Biology (81.13% vs. 70.51%), English I Reading (66.04% vs. 55.43%), English II Reading (74.29% vs. 59.88%), and U.S. History (73.02% vs. 70.17%). However, Algebra I remains a significant weakness, with only 33.33% of students meeting proficiency compared to the state average of 54.03%. On a positive note, the school showed remarkable improvement in Algebra I, jumping 13 percentage points from the previous year, indicating targeted efforts to address this gap.
Standout metrics include a perfect 100% graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate for the 2023-2024 school year, which are exceptional achievements. The school also benefits from a relatively low economic disadvantage rate, with only 24.31% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. For parents, this school offers a supportive, small-school environment with strong humanities and science programs, though families should be aware of the ongoing challenge in math. The school's ability to recover its state ranking and improve in weak areas suggests a responsive and dedicated staff.
