Summary

Triumph Public High Schools-McAllen is a small public charter high school in downtown McAllen, TX, serving 118 students in grades 9 through 12 as part of the Triumph Public High Schools-Rio Grande Valley district.

This school has historically performed in the bottom 12th to 20th percentile of Texas high schools, with recent STAAR test scores significantly below nearby schools. For example, only 21.4% of students were proficient in English I Reading, compared to 90.8% at Achieve Early College High School and 66.7% at Sharyland Advanced Academic Academy. The school's graduation rate has been highly volatile, dropping from 79.4% to 48.3% in one year before recovering to 80.0%. Its dropout rate of 4.4% is notably higher than nearby schools, which report rates near 0%. However, Algebra I is a relative strength, with 53.3% proficiency matching the state average.

Despite overall low performance, Triumph shows remarkable success with specific student groups. Migrant students ranked in the 84th percentile statewide in 2024-2025, suggesting effective support for this population. Special education students also showed dramatic improvement, jumping from the bottom 1% to the 48th percentile in two years. The school spends $12,112 per student, comparable to nearby high-performing schools like Sharyland High School ($12,336), yet achieves far weaker results. This contrast is especially stark when compared to Lamar Academy, a small magnet school just 0.69 miles away that serves a high-needs population yet ranks in the 81st percentile, highlighting that small size and funding alone do not determine academic outcomes.
