Summary

Eastwood Academy is a small, high-performing public high school in the Houston Independent School District (Isd), serving 365 students in grades 9-12 in the East End of Houston. This school stands out for its exceptional academic outcomes despite serving a student body where over 70% qualify for free or reduced lunch, a rate much higher than top magnet schools like Kinder H S For Performing And Visual Arts (23%) or Energy Institute High School (46%). Eastwood Academy has been ranked in the top 2% of Texas high schools multiple times over the past decade, achieving a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for nine of the last ten years, and its performance rivals selective schools with far fewer students from low-income backgrounds.

One of the most striking findings is the school's near-perfect graduation and dropout rates, which have been between 98% and 100% for the last five years, with a 0% dropout rate for the last two. This is a stark contrast to nearby comprehensive high schools on the same street, such as Austin High School, which had a 76% graduation rate and a 6.1% dropout rate in 2023-2024, and Wheatley High School, with a 62.6% graduation rate and a 6.7% dropout rate. Eastwood Academy also excels in English Language Arts, with 88-93% of students proficient in English I and II, nearly double the district average and far exceeding schools like Austin High School (25-28%) and Wheatley High School (27-35%).

While Eastwood Academy is highly efficient, spending less per student ($9,419) than lower-performing peers like Yates High School ($12,370), there are areas to watch. Its most recent data shows a slight dip in overall state rank from the 94th to the 86th percentile, and Algebra I proficiency (52%) has fallen below district and state averages. Additionally, the school's Gifted and Talented students ranked in only the 57th percentile statewide, suggesting that while the school excels at elevating its general population and at-risk students, it may not provide the same level of challenge for its highest achievers. Overall, Eastwood Academy is a standout choice for families seeking a high-performing, supportive environment that delivers strong results for a diverse student body.
