Lake Dallas Independent School District (Isd)

The Lake Dallas Independent School District (Isd) consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district exhibits a range of academic performance, with some standout schools like Lake Dallas High School and Lake Dallas Middle School outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests, while others like Corinth Elementary struggle to meet those benchmarks.

The racial demographics of the schools vary, with white students making up the largest percentage at most schools, followed by Hispanic and African American students. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, an indicator of economic disadvantage, ranges from 34.49% at Lake Dallas High School to 62.73% at Lake Dallas Elementary. This suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, as the schools with higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students tend to have lower test scores.

Among the standout schools, Lake Dallas High School boasts a high 4-year graduation rate of 99.0% and a low dropout rate of 0.1%, while Lake Dallas Middle School outperforms the district and state on standardized tests across all grade levels. Shady Shores Elementary also stands out with its above-average test scores and the lowest student-teacher ratio (12.5) among the elementary schools, which may contribute to its academic success.
