Summary

Bangs High School is a public high school located in Bangs, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 242 students. It is part of the Bangs Independent School District, which is ranked 436 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bangs High School has consistently maintained high 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 93.3% to 98.4% over the past 3 years, which are above the state average. The school also has very low dropout rates, ranging from 0.0% to 0.7% over the past 3 years, significantly lower than the state average. However, the school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is mixed compared to the state and district averages, with the school struggling in Algebra I, where proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state and district. Bangs High School has seen varying performance across different student subgroups, performing well for African American, Hispanic, and Gifted and Talented students, but struggling with White and Special Education students, who rank significantly lower than their peers statewide.

Compared to nearby high schools, such as Coleman High School and Early High School, Bangs High School generally performs at a lower level, with lower test scores and rankings. This suggests the need for Bangs High School to learn from the practices and strategies of higher-performing schools in the region. Additionally, Bangs High School's statewide ranking has declined over the past 10 years, from a high of 403 to its current rank of 976, indicating the need for the school to identify and address the factors contributing to this downward trend.
