Summary

Premier H S Of Huntsville is a small, alternative high school in Huntsville, TX, serving 67 students in grades 9-12, with about 75% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This school has shown extreme volatility in performance, ranking as high as the 80th percentile in 2017-2018 but dropping to the 20th percentile in the most recent projection, a stark contrast to the stable, high performance of nearby New Waverly High School (80th percentile).

One of the most critical concerns is the school's graduation rate of just 66.7%, which is significantly lower than Huntsville High School (83.5%) and New Waverly High School (95.8%). The dropout rate of 5.1% is also higher than both of those schools. While the school has historically shown strong results for at-risk and male students—ranking in the 90th percentile for these groups in recent years—that success has reversed sharply, with those same groups now ranking in the bottom 20th percentile. This suggests a systemic breakdown, possibly due to staff turnover or curriculum changes, that has undermined the school's ability to support its high-needs population.

Despite spending $12,142 per student—more than Huntsville High School—the school has a high student-to-teacher ratio of 22.3:1, indicating resources may not be directed toward hiring more teachers. There is one bright spot: in 2024-2025, 80% of students were proficient in English I Reading, far exceeding the district average of 23.5% and the state average of 51.3%. However, this success does not carry over to English II, where proficiency dropped to just 14.3%. Compared to the nearby alternative Thomas Buzbee Vocational School—which has an 8.3% graduation rate and 0% proficiency in core subjects—Premier H S Of Huntsville is more functional, but it still falls far short of the standards set by traditional public high schools in the area.
