Summary

Premier H S Of San Juan is a small, alternative-style high school in San Juan, TX, serving 108 students in grades 9-12, and it is part of the Premier High Schools district, which ranks in the bottom 10% of Texas school districts.

This school is currently in a state of crisis, with performance that has dramatically declined over the past few years. The most alarming metric is its graduation rate, which stands at just 40.5%—less than half the rate of every other nearby high school, such as Psja Southwest Early College High School (95.3%) and Idea College Preparatory San Juan (98.8%). The dropout rate has also spiked to 11.2%, far above the less than 1% rate seen at surrounding schools. Test scores have collapsed as well; for example, English I Reading proficiency dropped from 73% to just 5% in recent years. This is a stark contrast to stable, high-performing schools like Psja Collegiate School Of Health Professions, which consistently ranks in the 96th percentile statewide.

Interestingly, this school once excelled at serving at-risk students, ranking in the 90th percentile for that subgroup in 2018-2019, but that strength has completely vanished. The school's small size (108 students) has not translated into personalized success, as it has a higher student-teacher ratio (17.2:1) than many larger, successful peers. Compared to Buell Central Daep, a disciplinary alternative school with much higher per-student spending, Premier H S Of San Juan serves a similar high-need population but with far worse outcomes. The data suggests an urgent need for intervention to address the root causes of this decline.
