Summary

Brownsboro High School in Brownsboro, TX, is a mid-sized high school serving 770 students in grades 9-12 within the Brownsboro Independent School District (Isd), where nearly half of students are economically disadvantaged and the school maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 13.1:1.

Brownsboro High School stands out for its exceptional English Language Arts (ELA) performance, consistently exceeding state averages in English I and II reading—a clear strength compared to nearby schools like Tyler High School and Athens High School. The school also demonstrates outstanding support for English Language Learners, who recently ranked in the 78th percentile statewide—a dramatic improvement from just two years prior. Additionally, Brownsboro boasts exceptionally high graduation rates, consistently above 96% and reaching 99.4% in 2021-2022, with a negligible dropout rate. This performance is on par with top-performing peers like Frankston High School and Van High School, and significantly better than larger district schools. The school's most notable academic challenge is U.S. History, where proficiency rates have consistently lagged nearly 9 percentage points below the state average.

While not a top-tier school like Tyler Independent School District (Isd) Early College High School (98th percentile), Brownsboro offers reliable, consistent performance that avoids the deep troughs seen in struggling schools. It outperforms Lapoynor High School and Athens High School while sitting slightly behind Van and Frankston. With spending of $11,345 per student, the school appears to use resources efficiently to produce stable, above-average results in key areas like ELA and graduation. The school has also shown recent success in improving outcomes for African American students, who jumped from the 13th percentile to the 52nd percentile in the most recent year. However, the Gifted and Talented program shows volatile performance, swinging from the 91st percentile to the 39th percentile in consecutive years, suggesting inconsistency in support for these students.

Open Quote The school is terrific, and has relatively large Hispanic and African American ethic groups. While the school has a student teacher ratio of around 15-17 the average class size is 20-25. The school's VP Jeff "Doc" Howard is an amazing person who does so much for the kids and really believes in everything we stand for here at BHS and we are super lucky to have him. There is no doubt if you are looking for a campus for your children this is the best one around! Close Quote
