Summary

Brackett High School in Brackettville, TX, is a small, rural school serving 165 students in grades 9 through 12, where over half of the student body is economically disadvantaged and the school benefits from an exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of 8.5:1.

This school stands out for its strong performance in English Language Arts, consistently outperforming state averages by 10 to 20 percentage points in both English I and English II reading. However, it faces significant challenges in STEM subjects, with Algebra I proficiency dropping to just 18.18% and Biology at 38.1% in the most recent year—far below state averages. The school also shows a sharp overall decline, dropping from a 3-star to a 2-star rating and falling from the 63rd to the 46th percentile statewide. While the Brackett Independent School District (Isd) offers a high graduation rate above 97%, the school’s performance for Special Education students has plummeted to the 1st percentile, indicating a critical need for support. In contrast, the Gifted and Talented program remains a consistent bright spot, earning a 4-star rating for three consecutive years.

There are no other schools within 20 miles of Brackett High School, making it the sole high school option in the area. This isolation means families rely heavily on the school’s ability to address its recent struggles, particularly the dramatic drop in math scores and the volatility in serving specific student groups. The school’s small class sizes offer a unique advantage for personalized attention, but the data suggests that this benefit is not translating into consistent success across all subjects or student populations. Parents should be aware of the school’s strengths in reading and its challenges in math and science, as well as the need for targeted support for certain groups.
