Summary

Deweyville High School is a public high school located in Orange, Texas, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 273 students. The school is part of the Deweyville Independent School District, which is ranked 682 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Deweyville High School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

One of the school's strengths is its relatively high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 91.2% to 97.6% over the past few years. Additionally, Deweyville High School has maintained low dropout rates, ranging from 0.0% to 1.6%. However, the school's test scores on the STAAR assessments are generally below the state averages, particularly in the areas of mathematics and science. The school struggles to achieve proficiency levels comparable to the state, with many subject areas scoring in the 20-30% range. This may be partly due to the school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 50-55% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

When comparing Deweyville High School to nearby schools, such as Evadale High School, Orangefield High School, and Bridge City High School, it becomes evident that Deweyville High School is underperforming relative to its peers. These nearby schools have higher state rankings, better test scores, and higher graduation rates. Additionally, Deweyville High School's spending per student, while increasing over the past few years, still falls short of the nearby schools.
