Summary:
The Los Fresnos Consolidated Independent School District operates 14 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school, serving a predominantly Hispanic student population in the Los Fresnos area. The district's performance varies, with standout schools like Rancho Verde Elementary and Olmito Elementary demonstrating strong academic results, while others, like Las Yescas Elementary, struggle with lower test scores.
The district faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 68.87% at Olmito Elementary to 93.97% at Las Yescas Elementary. This suggests many students come from low-income households, which can present barriers to academic success. The district's lone high school, Los Fresnos High School, has a respectable 91.2% four-year graduation rate, but its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating indicate room for improvement.
Among the middle schools, Resaca Middle stands out with the highest student-teacher ratio and lower test scores compared to the other two middle schools, Los Cuates Middle and Liberty Memorial Middle. Ensuring strong academic foundations at the middle school level is crucial for student success in high school and beyond.
