Summary

Premier H S Of Texarkana is a small high school in Texarkana, TX, serving 88 students in grades 9-12 and operating as part of the Premier High Schools district, which ranks in the bottom 10% of districts statewide.

The most critical concern for parents is the school's alarmingly low graduation rate. Only 50% of students graduate within four years, which is dramatically lower than every nearby school—for example, Hooks High School (98.4%), Redwater High School (98.3%), and Pleasant Grove High School (98.3%) all boast rates above 98%. The dropout rate of 6.2% is also more than double that of the nearest comparable school, Liberty-Eylau High School (1.9%). This suggests the school may function as an alternative or credit-recovery option for students who have struggled in traditional settings, but its outcomes are notably worse than a similar local school, Options Early Graduation High School, which has a 92.3% graduation rate despite serving a comparable population.

Adding to these challenges, Premier H S Of Texarkana spends just $8,001 per student—the lowest of all nearby schools and roughly half of what high-performing schools like Redwater ($14,844) and Pleasant Grove ($12,098) invest. The student-to-teacher ratio of 17.6:1 is also higher than most area schools, meaning larger class sizes and potentially less individual attention. While the school has shown occasional bright spots in subjects like Algebra I and Biology, academic performance is highly inconsistent from year to year, likely due to its very small student body. For parents considering this school, the combination of low funding, high dropout rates, and a very low graduation rate are significant red flags that warrant careful investigation into the support systems available for students.

This school has helped my child flourish when the public school system failed him. He learns more, retains more information, works at his own pace, and gets the help he needs when he needs it. By working at his own pace, he will be graduating early. The instructors and administrative staff are top-notch. Close Quote
