Seguin Campus

Seguin Campus in Seguin, TX, is an alternative school serving 284 students in grades PK through 12, part of the Southwest Preparatory School district, and it stands out for its remarkable ability to keep students in school.

One of the most impressive features of Seguin Campus is its 0.0% dropout rate over the past five years, a stark contrast to nearby alternative schools like Founders Classical Academy of Schertz (2.5% dropout rate) and Long Creek High School (1.6% dropout rate). The school also excels in key high-stakes exams, consistently outperforming the state average in Biology and English II. For example, in 2022-2023, 83% of students were proficient in Biology (vs. 57% statewide), and 71% were proficient in English II (vs. 56% statewide). This success is supported by a low student-to-teacher ratio of 12.8:1 and higher-than-average spending of $14,294 per student, which is significantly more than the $7,550 spent per student at Long Creek High School.

However, the school faces significant challenges in foundational subjects, particularly Mathematics, where proficiency rates in grades 3-6 are critically low—for instance, only 4.55% of 4th graders were proficient in Math in 2025-2026, far below the state average of 49.28%. Despite this, the school shows a promising upward trend in Reading for middle school grades, with 6th grade Reading proficiency rising from 23% in 2022-2023 to 52.63% in 2024-2025. Compared to the nearby Discipline Alternative School at Saegert, which serves a smaller, higher-poverty population, Seguin Campus offers a larger, more stable environment with a strong focus on keeping students on track to graduate.
