Summary

Commerce High School is a public high school located in Commerce, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 485 students. The school is part of the Commerce Independent School District, which is ranked 844 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Over the past 10 years, Commerce High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools, with a ranking between 939 and 1658 and a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has shown improvement in its 4-year graduation rates, increasing from 91.3% in 2021-2022 to 96.2% in 2022-2023, though this is still slightly below the state average. The school's dropout rate has fluctuated, ranging from 0.7% in 2020-2021 to 2.0% in 2022-2023, with the latest rate of 1.6% being lower than the state average.

However, Commerce High School's STAAR EOC proficiency rates are consistently lower than the state and district averages across all subject areas, indicating academic performance is a significant challenge. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 40.15% in English I Reading to 47.58% in English II Reading, compared to the state averages of 51.26% and 56.22%, respectively. This may be due in part to the school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 73.2% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the state average.
