Summary

Hallsville High School in Hallsville, TX, is a large, high-performing public school serving 1,451 students in grades 9-12 within the Hallsville Independent School District (Isd), and it stands out as a beacon of academic stability and efficiency in the region.

This school consistently outperforms state averages on STAAR End-of-Course exams, with proficiency rates like 89.52% in Biology and 81.5% in English II Reading, far exceeding the state's 70.51% and 59.88%, respectively. Compared to nearby large schools, Hallsville is a clear leader: it surpasses Longview High School in every tested subject, and its Biology proficiency is 26 points higher than Pine Tree High School. Remarkably, Hallsville achieves these results with a per-student spending of just $8,262, significantly lower than peers like Harleton High School ($12,765) and Spring Hill High School ($10,771), making it a strong "value-add" institution. The school also boasts a low student-to-teacher ratio of 12.4:1, contributing to its exceptionally high graduation rates (consistently above 96%) and extremely low dropout rates (below 1%).

While Hallsville excels in most subjects, Algebra I is a relative weakness (61.89% proficiency), though still above the state average. A notable success is the dramatic improvement in serving Special Education students, who jumped from the 42nd to the 84th percentile in just two years. However, a "district paradox" exists: the high school's test scores are far higher than the district-wide averages, suggesting a uniquely effective academic culture at the high school level. Overall, Hallsville High School is a pillar of consistent excellence in the region, offering a personalized, efficient, and high-achieving environment for its students.
