Summary

Idea North Mission College Preparatory is a public charter school in Mission, TX, serving 756 students in grades 6-12 as part of the Idea Public Schools district, where over 92% of students come from low-income households.

This school stands out for its exceptional math program, especially in 8th grade, where 76.92% of students were proficient in 2025-2026—a remarkable 31 points above the district average and far surpassing nearby schools like Mission High School and Veterans Memorial High School, which both fall below 35%. The school also excels in U.S. History, with 82.14% proficiency compared to the state average of 70.17%, and has a very low dropout rate of just 0.3% paired with a high graduation rate of 96.5%. Additionally, it provides outstanding support for English Language Learner students, ranking in the 70th percentile statewide for this group—a strength not commonly seen in nearby schools.

However, the school has clear areas for improvement. It consistently underperforms in English Language Arts, with only 43.28% proficient in English I and 46.15% in English II, both well below state averages. Compared to its sister school, Idea College Preparatory Mission, which ranks higher overall (60th percentile vs. 47th), Idea North Mission is stronger in math and history but weaker in English and science. With a student-teacher ratio of 14.7 and per-student spending around $11,000—lower than Sharyland High School ($12,336) and La Joya Palmview High School ($12,970)—the school efficiently serves a high-need population, making it a solid choice for families prioritizing math achievement and strong student retention.
