Summary

Ray Braswell High School in Aubrey, TX, is a large public school serving 2,812 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Denton Independent School District (Isd). The school has a consistent 2-star rating, placing it in the 42nd percentile statewide, and serves a diverse student body where 45.5% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. While its graduation rate is strong at around 95-96%, its academic performance in core subjects like Algebra I (37.7% proficiency) and Biology (66% proficiency) lags behind state averages, though it shows relative strength in English Language Arts.

When compared to nearby schools in the Frisco Independent School District (Isd), the performance gap is significant. For example, Reedy High School and Wakeland High School, located just 3-7 miles away, rank in the 95th-97th percentile and have much higher test scores, such as 95.7% and 92.8% proficiency in Biology, respectively. This contrast highlights how district-level resources and demographics can create vastly different outcomes, even in the same geographic region. Ray Braswell's performance is more similar to Little Elm High School, another 2-star school with comparable demographics and academic challenges.

Notably, Ray Braswell has shown a declining trajectory since earning a 3-star rating in 2018-2019, and it struggles to close achievement gaps for its most vulnerable students, particularly those in special education (27th percentile) and low socioeconomic status (28th percentile). However, the school's strong graduation rate suggests it is effective at keeping students on track to graduate, even if grade-level mastery in core subjects remains a challenge. For parents, this school offers a supportive environment for graduation but may require additional academic support, especially in math and science, to ensure students are fully prepared for college or careers.
