Summary:
The River Road Independent School District (Isd) in Texas has only one high school, River Road High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 989 out of 1,961 Texas high schools in 2022-2023 to 1,412 out of 1,974 in 2024-2025.
River Road High School's academic performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is generally below the state average, with the exception of English I Reading and English II Reading, where the school's performance is slightly above the state average. The school's four-year graduation rate for 2022-2023 is 89.8%, which is lower than the state average, while its dropout rate for 2022-2023 is 0.6%, which is lower than the state average. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 56.07% in 2023-2024, and a student-teacher ratio of 10.3, which is lower than the state average.
Despite the school's lower-than-average performance on many metrics, the district appears to be allocating resources to support the school, as evidenced by its relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending compared to the state average. However, the declining performance suggests that these resources may not be translating into improved academic outcomes, and the school leadership may need to implement targeted interventions to address the root causes of the school's challenges.
