Summary:
The Paris Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to two high schools: Paris High School and Travis H.S. of Choice. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and offer a range of academic programs and extracurricular activities.
Travis H.S. of Choice stands out with its smaller student population of just 46 students, compared to 959 at Paris High School. This smaller size allows for a significantly lower student-teacher ratio of 4.7, compared to 13.2 at Paris High School. Additionally, Travis H.S. of Choice has more than double the spending per student, at $24,300 versus $10,517 at Paris High School. This higher investment per student may contribute to the school's better performance in certain STAAR EOC tests, such as English II Reading and U.S. History, where it outperforms the district and state averages.
Both Paris High School and Travis H.S. of Choice have impressive 4-year graduation rates of 96.3% and very low dropout rates of 0.6% for the 2022-2023 school year. However, Paris High School's STAAR EOC proficiency rates are generally lower than the district and state averages, with the exception of Biology and U.S. History. Interestingly, both schools serve a high percentage of students from low-income families, with free/reduced lunch rates of 70.28% and 73.91%, respectively, for the 2023-2024 school year.
