Summary

Levelland High School in Levelland, TX, serves approximately 798 students in grades 9-12 in a rural area of West Texas, and is part of the Levelland Independent School District (Isd).

Levelland High School has seen a notable decline in its statewide ranking, dropping to the 39th percentile in the most recent data—its lowest point in a decade. This is a significant shift from previous years when the school consistently ranked in the 48th to 56th percentile. The school maintains a strong graduation rate above 94% and a very low dropout rate, but academic performance on STAAR End-of-Course exams reveals areas of concern. For example, only about 40% of students are proficient in U.S. History, which is well below the state average. However, there is a bright spot in Biology, where nearly 77% of students are proficient, surpassing both the state average and the nearby Sundown High School (68.85%). The school also shows mixed results for different student groups, with strong support for Migrant Students historically, but lower performance for English Language Learners and Multi-racial students in the latest data.

When compared to Sundown High School, located just 11.6 miles away, the differences are striking. Sundown is ranked in the 65th percentile and has a much smaller student body (184 students) with a lower student-teacher ratio (7.8:1 vs. 13.2:1) and higher per-student spending ($18,524 vs. $12,016). Levelland also serves a higher percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds (63.91% vs. 45.65%). While these factors help explain some of the performance gap, the scale of the difference—especially the 27-point gap in U.S. History proficiency—suggests there is room for improvement in instructional strategies and resource allocation at Levelland. The school's recent downward trend is a key point for parents to consider when evaluating the school's current trajectory.
