Summary

The Oaks is a very small high school in Brownwood, TX, serving just 33 students in grades 8-12 as part of the Brookesmith Independent School District (Isd). While the school offers an exceptionally personalized learning environment with a student-to-teacher ratio of 6.6:1—the smallest among all nearby schools—its academic outcomes are significantly below state averages and most surrounding schools.

The school ranks in the 8th percentile statewide, placing it among the lowest-performing high schools in Texas for the 2025-2026 school year. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like Early High School (80th percentile) and Brownwood High School (49th percentile), both located just a few miles away. Proficiency rates on STAAR End-of-Course exams are critically low: 0% in Algebra I (vs. 54% state average), 12.5% in Biology (vs. 70.5% state average), and 22.2% in English I (vs. 55.4% state average). The only relative bright spot is U.S. History, where 42.9% of students are proficient, though this still falls below the state average of 70.2%.

Despite the school's intimate size, the small class ratios are not translating into academic success, suggesting deeper challenges related to curriculum rigor or instructional quality. The school's "Low Socio-Economic Status" subgroup performs slightly better than the overall student body, ranking in the 20th percentile, but overall outcomes remain very low. For parents considering this school, it's important to note the significant disparity in educational opportunity compared to nearby options like Bangs High School (57th percentile) or Santa Anna Secondary, which achieve much higher proficiency rates across all subjects.
