Summary

Chisholm Trail High School in Fort Worth, TX, serves 2,258 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Eagle Mt-Saginaw Independent School District (Isd), with nearly half of its students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Chisholm Trail has experienced a notable decline in recent years, dropping from a 3-star rating to a 2-star rating and falling from the 77th percentile statewide to the 45th percentile. This is a significant shift compared to its district peer, Boswell High School, which has maintained a stable 3-star rating and higher rankings. The most pressing concern is Algebra I proficiency, where only 27% of Chisholm Trail students are proficient—well below the district average of 47% and the state average of 54%. This is a school-specific issue, as nearby schools like Lake Worth High School (36.7%) and Boswell (34.3%) outperform Chisholm Trail in this subject. Interestingly, just 0.4 miles away, Marine Creek Collegiate High School achieves dramatically better results (79.4% in Algebra I) despite serving a higher percentage of low-income students, suggesting that Chisholm Trail's challenges are tied to school-level factors like instruction and curriculum rather than demographics alone.

On a positive note, Chisholm Trail maintains an exceptionally low dropout rate of just 0.1%, lower than the district average and far below schools like Lake Worth (3.5%) and North Side High School (2.9%). The school also shows strong results for its Native American students, who rank in the 86th percentile statewide. However, support for at-risk and special education students has been inconsistent year-over-year, and per-student spending ($9,608) is lower than many nearby schools, including Saginaw High School ($10,073) and Diamond Hill-Jarvis High School ($11,230). Parents should consider these factors when evaluating the school's current trajectory.
