Summary

Winfree Academy North Richland Hills is a small alternative high school in North Richland Hills, TX, serving 208 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Winfree Academy Charter Schools district, which ranks in the bottom 2nd percentile statewide.

This school serves a highly at-risk population, functioning as a "last chance" option for students who have struggled in traditional settings. However, the outcomes are concerning: the graduation rate is just 30.4% (2023-2024), while the dropout rate is 21.1%—dramatically higher than nearby traditional schools like Birdville High School (94.9% graduation, under 1% dropout) and Richland High School (94.7% graduation). Academic proficiency is critically low, with only 5.26% of students proficient in Algebra I and 6.52% in English I Reading, compared to over 60% at nearby schools. The student-teacher ratio is 28.5:1, which is very high for an alternative school and suggests large class sizes with limited individual attention.

Interestingly, the school shows relative strengths in Biology (52.63% proficient) and U.S. History (51.11% proficient), and performs better for African American and Special Education students compared to other subgroups. However, the most telling comparison is to Bob E. Griggs High School, a similar alternative school just 0.47 miles away in Birdville Independent School District (Isd). Bob E. Griggs has a 62.7% graduation rate, a 5.2% dropout rate, and spends $32,170 per student with a 6.6:1 student-teacher ratio—compared to Winfree's $5,867 per student. This massive resource gap likely explains much of the difference in outcomes, suggesting that Winfree Academy is underfunded and understaffed for the challenging population it serves.
