The Raymondville Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to two high schools: Raymondville High School and Raymondville Options Academic Academy. While both schools have similar graduation rates and low dropout rates, Raymondville High School emerges as the standout, with a higher statewide ranking, better test scores, and stronger overall performance compared to Raymondville Options Academic Academy.
Raymondville High School has a statewide ranking between 700 and 1,074 out of 1,961 to 1,987 Texas high schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Raymondville Options Academic Academy has a much lower statewide ranking, between 1,462 and 1,832 out of 1,961 to 1,974 Texas high schools, with a 0 to 1-star rating. Raymondville High School also outperforms the district average and Raymondville Options Academic Academy on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams, with higher proficiency rates in subjects like Algebra I, Biology, English I and II, and U.S. History.
Despite the performance differences, both schools have a 93.8% four-year graduation rate for the 2022-2023 school year. However, Raymondville Options Academic Academy has a significantly higher rate of free/reduced lunch recipients at 98.11%, compared to 83.99% at Raymondville High School. This suggests that Raymondville Options Academic Academy may be serving a more disadvantaged student population and may require additional resources and support to help its students achieve at higher levels.
