Summary

Harmony School Of Excellence - Laredo is a public charter high school in Laredo, TX, serving 671 students in grades 9-12, where about 88-90% of students come from low-income families. This school stands out in a challenging educational landscape, as most nearby schools in the Laredo Independent School District (Isd) rank in the bottom 15th percentile statewide, while Harmony offers a significantly higher-quality option for families.

Harmony excels in several key areas that set it apart from other local high schools. It ranks in the 80th percentile statewide for supporting English Language Learners (ELL), earning a 4-star rating—a remarkable achievement compared to surrounding schools. The school also shines with its Gifted and Talented program, ranking in the 84th percentile (4 stars) and reaching the 91st percentile in the previous year. In Algebra I, Harmony's proficiency rate of 59.59% outperforms both the district (57.83%) and state (54.03%) averages, and it previously hit an exceptional 70.07% in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school maintains a 0.0% dropout rate for four of the last five years, far better than nearby schools like Dr Leo Cigarroa High School (1.6%) and Nixon High School (0.7%).

However, the school shows a clear academic split: while it excels in math and science, it consistently struggles with English Language Arts, with proficiency rates in English I and II Reading falling below district and state averages. Its overall state ranking has been volatile, swinging from the 74th percentile to the 36th percentile in recent years, suggesting sensitivity to changes in student cohorts. Despite this, Harmony achieves strong results with efficient spending of about $9,734 per student, lower than nearby schools like Martin High School ($11,198). The only local school that outperforms Harmony is the selective Hector J Garcia Early College High School (98th percentile), but that school has a specialized, non-comprehensive admissions process, making Harmony's broad-based support for ELL and low-income students all the more impressive.
