Summary

Texas Early College High School in Marshall, TX, is a small, specialized school serving 97 students in grades 8 through 12 as part of the high-performing Panola Charter School district. This school has achieved a perfect 100% graduation rate for four consecutive years and a 0% dropout rate for five years, a record unmatched by nearby traditional high schools like Marshall High School, which has a 63.3% graduation rate and a 13.4% dropout rate. The school’s focus on early college readiness is evident in its strong English Language Arts performance, with 75% proficiency in English I and 80% in English II, far exceeding state averages and outperforming Marshall High School’s scores of 38.55% and 54.85% on the same tests.

Despite operating on a lean budget of just $5,180 per student—less than half of what schools like Beckville Junior-Senior High School ($12,991) or Waskom High School ($14,128) spend—Texas Early College High School delivers strong academic outcomes. The school has shown remarkable improvement, climbing from the 24th percentile statewide in 2020-2021 to the 66th percentile in 2025-2026. It also excels at supporting students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with this subgroup ranking in the 76th percentile statewide in 2024-2025, a significant jump from the previous year.

However, the school’s performance in math and science is an area for growth. Eighth-grade math proficiency is only 28.57%, well below the state average of 47.24%, though Algebra I proficiency (57.89%) is slightly above the state average. Biology proficiency has improved to 72.73% after a low of 30% in 2022-2023. Located less than two miles from Marshall High School (1-star, 23rd percentile) and Marshall Early Graduation School (0-star, 4th percentile), Texas Early College High School offers a compelling alternative for families seeking a rigorous, college-focused environment with a proven track record of student success and retention.
