Summary

Lit Cypr-Mrceville High School in Orange, TX, serves 1,001 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Consolidated Independent School District, a district that ranks in the 33rd percentile statewide.

This school is a study in contrasts. On one hand, it boasts an exceptional graduation rate of 97% and a very low dropout rate of 0.3%, rivaling top-performing neighbors like Orangefield High School. It also shows clear strength in English Language Arts, outperforming the state average in both English I and English II. However, its performance in Algebra I is a significant weakness, with only 34% of students proficient—the lowest rate among all comparable nearby high schools, including Nederland High School (66%) and Vidor High School (48%). This suggests a strong focus on student support and credit recovery, but potentially at the expense of rigorous academic mastery in math.

After a long period of lower ratings, the school has recently earned a 3-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year, indicating a positive trajectory. While it serves as an academic anchor compared to West Orange-Stark High School, it has significant room for growth to match the performance of Orangefield High School, which outperforms it in nearly every subject. Notably, the school achieves elite results for its Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the 81st percentile statewide, and its Asian students rank in the 98th percentile. This suggests that while the school excels for specific groups, it must focus on raising achievement across all student populations to close the gap with its highest-performing neighbors.
