Summary

Clyde High School is a mid-sized high school in Clyde, TX, serving 444 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Clyde Consolidated Independent School District, which ranks in the top 26% of Texas districts.

Clyde High School has a strong track record of high performance, consistently earning a 4-star rating from Schooldigger over the last six years and ranking in the 71st to 80th percentile statewide. This marks a significant turnaround from the 2018-2019 school year when it was a 2-star school. The school excels in key areas, including near-perfect graduation rates (consistently above 96% and reaching 100% in two of the last five years) and a very low dropout rate (0.6% in 2023-2024). It also boasts a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.2:1, lower than the state average. Notably, Clyde is exceptionally effective for its most vulnerable students, ranking in the 91st percentile for Special Education students and the 84th percentile for Low Socio-Economic Status students in the 2025-2026 school year. The school also demonstrates operational efficiency, achieving superior academic outcomes despite spending less per student ($13,124) than many smaller rural peers like Eula High School ($22,695) and Baird High School ($17,112).

Compared to nearby schools in Abilene, Clyde stands out dramatically. While Abilene High School and Cooper High School consistently rank in the 36th-49th percentile (2-star schools), Clyde ranks 30+ percentile points higher. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, Clyde’s English I Reading proficiency (73.21%) was over 20 percentage points higher than both Abilene High (52.41%) and Cooper High (45.49%). Clyde’s graduation rate also far exceeds Cooper High’s 86.4% rate. Even when compared to the selective magnet school Academy for Technology, Engineering, Math & Science (ATEMS) in Abilene, which ranks in the 96th percentile, Clyde’s Algebra I proficiency (65.63%) is comparable to ATEMS (63.64%), highlighting a particular strength in math. While the school excels for many, it shows a relative weakness in serving its Gifted and Talented students (40th percentile) and White students (63rd percentile), suggesting an opportunity to enhance enrichment for its highest-achieving students.
