Summary:
The Lyford Consolidated Independent School District in Texas has only one high school, Lyford High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school has consistently performed below average compared to other high schools in Texas, ranking in the bottom half of the state's schools for the past three years and earning a 1 or 2-star rating on the SchoolDigger scale.
Despite its low overall performance, Lyford High School has some positive indicators, including a very high 4-year graduation rate of 99.1% and a low dropout rate of 0.4%. However, the school's STAAR EOC test scores are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in Algebra I, where the proficiency rate is only 2.38% compared to the state's 47.01%. The school performs better in other subjects, such as Biology, English I and II, and U.S. History, but still falls below the state averages.
The high percentage of students (75.74%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Lyford High School suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which may contribute to its academic challenges. The school district's spending per student is higher than the state average, and the school has a lower student-teacher ratio of 11.1, indicating smaller class sizes. These factors could be leveraged to implement targeted interventions and support programs to help improve student outcomes at Lyford High School.
