Summary

Graford School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in the Graford Independent School District, with 330 students. This relatively small school has consistently maintained high graduation rates, reaching 100% in the 2022-2023 school year, and low dropout rates, with a 0.6% rate in the most recent year.

Graford School generally outperforms the state average on STAAR assessments across various subjects and grade levels, with particularly strong results in 3rd and 4th grade reading. The school also has a relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $11,261 to $12,807 over the past three school years, and a lower student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, suggesting a more favorable learning environment with smaller class sizes.

While Graford School has maintained a strong academic performance, the nearby Bryson School and Garner College and Career Preparatory Academy also demonstrate strong academic performance in certain areas, such as 8th grade reading and Algebra I at Bryson School, and English I and II reading at Garner College and Career Preparatory Academy. This suggests that the surrounding schools in the region are also providing quality education.
