Summary

Panther Creek High School in Frisco, TX, is a 4-star high school serving 1,253 students in grades 9-12 as part of the highly-rated Frisco Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 96th percentile statewide. The school boasts a low student-to-teacher ratio of 13.7:1 and an exceptionally low dropout rate of 0.1%, reflecting a stable and supportive learning environment.

Panther Creek excels in several academic areas, particularly in Biology, where 89.68% of students were proficient in the 2025-2026 school year—significantly above the state average of 70.51% and competitive with nearby schools like Memorial High School (86.75%) and Lone Star High School (87.56%). English Language Arts scores are also strong and consistent, with proficiency rates around 81-82% in English I and II, well above state averages. However, the school faces a notable challenge in Algebra I, where only 54.36% of students were proficient—just above the state average but far below the district average of 76.16%. This weakness is shared by many Frisco ISD peers, suggesting a district-wide issue, but it remains a key area for improvement at Panther Creek.

An interesting finding is the volatility in serving specific student groups. For example, English Language Learner students saw a dramatic drop from a 5-star rating to a 1-star rating between school years, while Low Socio-Economic Status students have consistently received low ratings. This contrasts with the school's strong performance for Gifted and Talented students (79th percentile), highlighting a gap in support for economically disadvantaged students. Overall, Panther Creek provides a reliable, high-quality education for most students, with consistent scores in core subjects and a positive trajectory in state rankings, moving from the 82nd to the 88th percentile over recent years.
