Summary

Blanco High School is a small, rural high school in Blanco, TX, serving 365 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Blanco Independent School District (Isd), and has recently earned a 4-star rating after several years of 3-star ratings.

Blanco High School stands out for its exceptional performance in English Language Arts, with proficiency rates in English I and English II significantly exceeding state averages and outperforming nearby schools like Wimberley High School. The school also boasts a very low student-to-teacher ratio of 11.5:1, which is lower than both Wimberley and Canyon Lake High School, suggesting a more personalized learning environment. Additionally, the school has an impressive 98.8% graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate, matching the achievement of Lyndon B Johnson High School. Notably, Blanco has shown a strong recent ability to improve outcomes for its most vulnerable student subgroups, including those from low socio-economic backgrounds, with these groups rebounding to higher percentile ranks after a dip in the previous year.

However, the school faces a clear academic challenge in Algebra I, where only 39.19% of students are proficient, well below the state average and significantly lower than Wimberley's 53.61%. This weakness contrasts sharply with its strengths in English and Biology. Another area of volatility is the performance of Gifted and Talented students, which dropped dramatically from the 91st percentile to the 24th percentile in just one year. Despite these challenges, Blanco outperforms the similarly-sized Lyndon B Johnson High School in most academic subjects, even while serving a student population with a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. The school's primary opportunity for growth lies in replicating its successful English and subgroup intervention strategies within its math department.
