Summary:
The Muleshoe Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to two elementary schools: Dillman Elementary and Mary Deshazo Elementary. Both schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and are situated within the Muleshoe ISD, which is ranked 640 out of 961 school districts in Texas and rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
While neither Dillman Elementary nor Mary Deshazo Elementary stand out as exceptional performers, the data reveals some key insights about the schools. Both have high free and reduced lunch rates, with Dillman Elementary at 91.56% and Mary Deshazo Elementary at 87.63% for the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a student population from low-income families. Additionally, the schools' standardized test scores are consistently lower than the state averages, suggesting below-average academic performance.
Despite the relatively high spending per student, which was $12,435 for Dillman Elementary and $12,545 for Mary Deshazo Elementary in the 2020-2021 school year, the schools have not been able to translate this investment into significantly better student outcomes. The district may benefit from a closer examination of resource allocation, instructional practices, and targeted interventions to address the educational needs of its student population and improve overall academic performance.
