Summary

Carrizo Springs High School serves 565 students in grades 9-12 in a rural area of South Texas, where over 72% of students are economically disadvantaged, and the school has recently shown notable academic improvement, earning a 2-star rating and jumping to the 35th percentile in state rankings for the 2025-2026 school year.

This school is showing a clear upward trend compared to nearby Crystal City High School, which is only 12 miles away. In the most recent rankings, Carrizo Springs significantly outperformed Crystal City (35th percentile vs. 23rd percentile), a reversal from the previous year when both were tied at the 19th percentile. Carrizo Springs also invests more per student ($15,056 vs. $11,198) and maintains a lower student-to-teacher ratio (13.6:1 vs. 16.2:1), suggesting more individualized attention. The school excels in U.S. History, with 68.25% of students proficient compared to just 49.11% at Crystal City, and shows relative strength in Biology (66.42% proficiency, close to the state average of 70.51%). However, a critical concern is the declining graduation rate, which has dropped sharply from 94.7% in 2020-2021 to 80.1% in 2023-2024, while Crystal City's rate is higher at 88.9%.

One of the most encouraging findings is the remarkable progress for vulnerable student groups. English Language Learners jumped from the 5th percentile to the 65th percentile, and Special Education students now perform at the 58th percentile, both earning 3-star ratings. Students from low socioeconomic backgrounds are performing at the state median (50th percentile). These gains suggest recent instructional strategies are working well. On the other hand, Algebra I proficiency remains alarmingly low at 24.73%, which appears to be a regional challenge—the Carrizo Springs Consolidated Independent School District average is 50.35%, and Crystal City also struggles at 29.41%. The school's science and social studies departments are clear strengths to build upon, while math and English need continued focus.
