Summary

Boles High School is a small, rural high school in Quinlan, TX, serving 176 students in grades 9-12 within the Boles Independent School District (Isd), where about half of the students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school stands out for its exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.3:1, which is far better than nearby schools like Royse City High School (14.9:1) or Terrell High School (16.5:1), and it boasts a perfect 0% dropout rate and a near-100% graduation rate over the last several years. This suggests a highly supportive environment where students are guided to completion, a stark contrast to larger schools like Greenville High School, which has a 0.5% dropout rate and 95.3% graduation rate.

Academically, Boles shows a clear strength in English Language Arts, consistently outperforming the state average—73.2% of students were proficient in English II Reading compared to 59.9% statewide. This is notably better than its closest neighbor, Wh Ford High School in Quinlan, which scored only 54.2% in the same subject. However, the school has a significant weakness in U.S. History, where just 40.5% of students were proficient versus the state average of 70.2%, a 30-point gap that is the lowest among all nearby schools. This polarized performance suggests a potential issue with curriculum or instruction in history, while other subjects like Biology (62.5% proficient) remain solid.

Boles spends a high amount per student ($15,164), which is more than districts like Royse City Independent School District (Isd) ($8,155) or Terrell Independent School District (Isd) ($11,454), likely due to its small size and low class sizes. This investment appears to pay off in student retention and graduation, even if overall test scores are average. While support for specific student groups can vary year to year, the school’s small, tight-knit environment and strong English results make it a compelling option for families seeking personalized attention and a high likelihood of on-time graduation.
