Summary

Fort Stockton High serves 699 students in grades 9-12 within the Fort Stockton Independent School District (Isd), located in a community where over 71% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school stands out as a pillar of stability in a district that ranks in the bottom 8% of Texas, offering a much stronger educational experience than its local peers.

When compared to other high schools in the district, Fort Stockton High is a clear standout. It consistently outperforms Lone Star Virtual Academy and Butz Preparatory Academy on STAAR End-of-Course exams, with significantly higher proficiency rates in subjects like Biology (58.54% vs. 37.21% for Lone Star). The most dramatic difference is in graduation and dropout rates: Fort Stockton High boasts a 96.5% graduation rate and a mere 0.8% dropout rate, while Lone Star Virtual Academy has a 10.9% dropout rate and Butz Preparatory Academy has a staggering 17.1% dropout rate. This shows the school is highly effective at keeping students on track to earn their diplomas.

Fort Stockton High has shown a recent capacity for improvement, jumping from the 15th percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 45th percentile in 2024-2025, though it dipped to the 20th percentile in the most recent data. A bright spot is the school's work with English Language Learner (ELL) students, whose ranking improved from the 22nd to the 52nd percentile. However, a critical area of concern is Special Education, where the subgroup ranking fell to the 8th percentile, earning a 0-star rating. Overall, Fort Stockton High is a strong choice for families seeking a school with high graduation rates and a commitment to student success, despite some areas needing attention.
