Summary

Carver H S For Applied Technical/Engineering/Arts in Houston, TX, is a high school in the Aldine Independent School District (Isd) serving 708 students in grades 9-12, with about 81% of students from low socio-economic backgrounds. This school is in the midst of a powerful renaissance, climbing from a 1-star ranking (bottom 20th percentile) to a 3-star ranking (52nd percentile) in recent years, a dramatic turnaround that sets it apart from nearby schools like Eisenhower High School (1-star, 21st percentile) and La Promesa (1-star, 11th percentile), which remain stagnant.

Carver’s strongest academic subject is English Language Arts, with proficiency rates in English I (48%) and English II (63%) significantly outpacing the district average (38% and 46%, respectively). The school also excels in U.S. History, with an 80% proficiency rate that beats both the district (66%) and state (70%) averages. However, Algebra I remains a challenge, with only 37% of students proficient, below the district (46%) and state (54%) averages—a common struggle for nearby schools like Scarborough High School (44%) and Eisenhower (28%), but a stark contrast to the near-perfect scores at Victory Early College High School (94%) and Blanson Cte High School (99%).

Carver is notably effective at supporting diverse student groups, ranking in the top 30% statewide for Hispanic students, low socio-economic status students, and English Language Learner students, and in the top 13% for Gifted and Talented students—a massive leap from the bottom 10% just a few years ago. The school also boasts a high graduation rate of 92.1%, well above the district average of 84.6% and far better than Eisenhower (80.0%). While Yes Prep - White Oak (a charter school) has a higher overall ranking (78th percentile), Carver is more effective for its English Language Learner population, suggesting specialized support systems that make it a strong, accessible option for families seeking a school on the rise.
