Summary

Birdville High School in North Richland Hills, TX, is a large, comprehensive high school serving 2,069 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Birdville Independent School District (Isd), which holds a 3-star district rating.

Birdville High School stands out as the top-performing school in its district, earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 73rd percentile among all Texas high schools. It consistently outperforms nearby Haltom High School (38th percentile) by a wide margin in key subjects like English I and II Reading, U.S. History, and Biology. The school also boasts a remarkably low dropout rate of just 0.9% and a stable, high graduation rate of 94.9%, which is above the district average. However, it faces strong competition from the specialized Grapevine-Colleyville Collegiate Academy At Tcc NE, located just over a mile away, which achieves near-perfect test scores in subjects like Biology and English II.

While Birdville excels in many areas, including strong support for its Gifted and Talented students (85th percentile), it shows a notable weakness in Algebra I proficiency (52.45%), which is below the district average. The school also faces challenges in supporting its English Language Learner and Special Education populations, which recently ranked in the 39th percentile. With a student-teacher ratio of 17.1 and per-student spending around $9,000, Birdville operates efficiently, achieving strong results without unusually high funding. Overall, it is a stable, high-performing school that is the flagship of its district, though it must address gaps in math and support for at-risk learners.
