Summary

Edna Alternative is a small public high school in Edna, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with just 27 students. While part of the Edna Independent School District, which has a 2-star rating, Edna Alternative consistently ranks in the bottom 25% of Texas high schools and struggles with poor academic performance and low graduation rates.

Edna Alternative's STAAR EOC (End of Course) exam proficiency rates are significantly below state and district averages across multiple subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school had a 50% proficiency rate in English II Reading, compared to 57.14% for the Edna ISD and 56.22% for the state. Additionally, while the school maintains relatively high four-year graduation rates, these still lag behind the nearby Edna High School. Edna Alternative also has a very high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 88.89% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024.

Compared to other nearby schools, such as Edna High School, Edna Alternative's performance is consistently lower across key metrics. This suggests the school may face funding challenges that could be impacting its resources and academic outcomes. While the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, the overall trend points to the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student learning and achievement at Edna Alternative.
