Summary:
Rockdale Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single high school, Rockdale High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has a relatively high graduation rate of 96.4% and a very low dropout rate of 0.0%, its overall academic performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools over the past three years.
Rockdale High School's SchoolDigger rating has remained at 2 out of 5 stars for the past three years, indicating that it is an underperforming school compared to its peers. The school's proficiency rates on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams are generally below the state average across all subjects, with particularly low performance in Algebra I at just 10.42% proficiency, compared to the state average of 47.01%. However, the school's performance on STAAR EOC exams has been relatively consistent over the past two school years, with some slight variations in proficiency rates.
Demographic and socioeconomic factors may play a role in the school's academic challenges, as Rockdale High School has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 65.45% in the 2023-2024 school year. The district's per-student spending for the 2020-2021 school year was $14,230. Despite these challenges, the school's high graduation rate and low dropout rate suggest that it is effectively supporting its students, even if their academic achievement is not as strong as the state average.
