Summary

Grand Saline High School is a public high school serving 337 students in grades 9-12 in the Grand Saline Independent School District in Grand Saline, Texas. The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past several years, ranging from a high of 523 out of 1,762 Texas high schools in 2015-2016 to a low of 1,123 out of 1,974 in 2024-2025, and has an overall rating of 2 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

Grand Saline High School has maintained strong graduation rates, ranging from 97.4% to 98.7% over the past few years, and low dropout rates, ranging from 0.0% to 0.3%. However, the school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams has been mixed, with the school performing well in some subject areas but struggling in others. Interestingly, when compared to nearby schools like Quitman High School and Canton High School, both of which have consistently outperformed Grand Saline High School in terms of statewide rankings and test scores, there may be opportunities for the school to learn from their practices and strategies.

Another notable finding is the significant disparities in performance between different student subgroups at Grand Saline High School, which warrant further investigation. For example, the school has performed well with its multi-racial students, ranking 21 out of 677 Texas high schools in 2022-2023, but has struggled with its white and English Language Learner (ELL) student populations, ranking in the bottom quartile of Texas high schools in recent years. Understanding the underlying factors contributing to these disparities could help the school develop targeted interventions to support all students.
