Summary:
The Venus Independent School District (Isd) in Texas operates 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Venus Elementary and Venus Pri), 1 middle school (Venus Middle), and 1 high school (Venus High School). The district serves a high-need student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 63.18% to 74.32% across the schools.
Based on the data, Venus Middle School appears to be the strongest performer in the district, with the highest proficiency rates on STAAR tests across 6th, 7th, and 8th grade, as well as the highest percentage of students proficient in Algebra I End-of-Course exams at 65.63% in 2024-2025. In contrast, Venus High School stands out with a strong 94% four-year graduation rate in 2022-2023, despite having lower proficiency rates than the state averages.
However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the schools in Venus ISD and the state averages on STAAR tests, with some schools struggling to meet proficiency benchmarks. Additionally, the statewide school rankings from SchoolDigger show that the Venus schools have been declining in their rankings over the past few years, with all schools rated 1 or 0 stars out of 5. These findings suggest that the district has work to do in order to provide a high-quality education for all students.
