Summary

Belton New Technical H S At Waskow is a small, specialized high school in Belton, TX, serving 284 students in grades 9-12 within the Belton Independent School District (Isd).

This school stands out for its exceptional academic performance, ranking in the 88th percentile statewide and earning a 4-star rating. It achieves remarkable results for its students, ranking #1 in Texas for African American student performance and in the 95th percentile for Special Education students. The school also boasts a perfect 0.0% dropout rate over the last two years. When compared to its much larger district peers, Belton New Tech outperforms both Belton High School and Lake Belton High School in every tested subject, with particularly wide gaps in English II and U.S. History. For example, 87.5% of its students are proficient in English II Reading, compared to just 57% at Belton High. The school's success is even more striking when compared to nearby Temple Independent School District (Isd) schools, where proficiency rates in English I Reading are nearly half or less.

However, the school has a notable weakness in Algebra I, where only 52.5% of students are proficient, below both district and state averages. Additionally, its performance for Gifted and Talented students ranks in the 23rd percentile, suggesting the curriculum may not be sufficiently challenging for its highest-achieving students. This creates a unique profile: the school is exceptionally effective at supporting students who need extra help, but may not be the best fit for those seeking advanced academic rigor in math or gifted programs.
