Summary

Coldspring-Oakhurst High School in Coldspring, TX, serves 492 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Coldspring-Oakhurst Consolidated Independent School District, which ranks in the bottom 16th percentile of Texas school districts. The school itself has a 1-star rating and ranks in the 28th percentile of Texas high schools, with about 59% of students economically disadvantaged. While the graduation rate is solid at around 92%, academic proficiency on state assessments is consistently below both district and state averages across core subjects, particularly in Algebra I where only 26.25% of students were proficient in 2025-2026 compared to the state average of 54.03%.

A key concern is that the school spends $14,696 per student—significantly more than higher-performing nearby schools like Onalaska Junior/Senior High (3-star, $11,316 per student) and Livingston High School (2-star, $10,900 per student)—yet sees lower academic returns. This suggests resource allocation and instructional effectiveness need attention. Interestingly, Goodrich High School, just 11.6 miles away with a 98.51% economically disadvantaged rate, ranks in the 68th percentile (3-star) and outperforms Coldspring-Oakhurst in nearly every subject, including English I Reading (73.68% vs. 41.27%). This shows that high poverty does not have to limit success and points to school culture and instruction as key factors.

There are notable bright spots and challenges. The school’s performance in U.S. History is a relative strength, nearly matching the state average at 63.48% proficiency. However, there is a significant gender achievement gap, with female students performing at the 39th percentile and male students at the 22nd percentile. Subgroup performance is volatile—Special Education students jumped from the 15th to the 80th percentile in one year, while Hispanic students dropped from the 56th to the 30th percentile. This instability may reflect the small school size, where a few students’ scores can cause large swings, and suggests a need for more consistent support systems.

by a teacher
Tuesday, February 3, 2015

While school administrators set perched high and mighty this evening (2/2/15) before an assembly of community members, students, parents, and other stakeholders, patting themselves on the backs for supposed improved standardized test scores, student college and workforce preparedness, campus culture, and so forth, all I can do is think of my students, 90%+ of whom are ill-prepared to function in even the most menial of environments. It's not that they're bad people - most of them are quite the opposite - but they have never been expected to perform academically, or behave in manners expected of civilized individuals. So for the powers-that-be to pronounce with straight faces that this district is anything other than horribly and/or irreparably broken is dishonest, shameful, and otherwise disingenuous.
