Summary

Goose Creek Memorial is a public high school located in Baytown, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,328 students. It is part of the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District, which is ranked 701 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Goose Creek Memorial has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools, maintaining a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past 10 years. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with relatively strong results for African American and Hispanic students, but struggles with Asian, White, and Gifted and Talented populations. Goose Creek Memorial's STAAR EOC test scores are generally below the state and district averages across all subject areas, and the school's dropout rate has been higher than the state average in recent years.

While Goose Creek Memorial's performance is on par with or slightly better than other high schools in the Goose Creek Consolidated ISD, such as Lee High School and Stuart Career Technical High School, it lags significantly behind the high-performing Barbers Hill High School, which is located just a few miles away but is part of a different school district. The district's Impact Early College High School also stands out as a high-performing school, suggesting that specialized programs and school choice options may be an effective strategy for improving educational outcomes in the Goose Creek Consolidated ISD.

Not a parent, but evidently this district hires terrible teachers that try to indoctrinate our students towards far left political views. Shame on the teacher and school district. Glad it’s in the news. Well not on CNN or MSNBC. That teacher needs some schooling and should be fired. Close Quote

My child attends GCM High School and I couldn't be more pleased! The teachers are wonderful and so helpful. They encourage the kids to do their best at all times. The school is always clean and well maintained. I wouldn't have my kids attend anywhere else! Close Quote
