Summary

Dupre Academy High School is a small alternative high school in Lubbock, TX, serving 140 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Lubbock Independent School District (Isd), and it serves a student population with extremely high economic need, with 88.57% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Dupre Academy faces severe challenges that set it apart from other schools in the district. Its dropout rate of 12.7% is over six times higher than the district average and more than three times higher than Estacado High School, which serves a similarly high-poverty population. The graduation rate of 73.6% is the lowest in the district, compared to 84.3% at Estacado and over 92% at Lubbock High School. Academically, proficiency rates are critically low—only 4.55% of students are proficient in Algebra I and 14.29% in English I Reading—while Estacado achieves 29.55% and 27.7% in those subjects, respectively. The school spends a dramatically high $45,953 per student, nearly five times more than Lubbock High School, yet this investment has not translated into improved outcomes, indicating a systemic failure that has persisted for over a decade.

Despite these struggles, there are a few notable points. The school shows a relative strength in Biology, with 42.86% proficiency, nearly matching Estacado’s 43.26%, suggesting that improvement is possible in specific areas. Additionally, in the 2021-2022 school year, Dupre Academy ranked in the 81st percentile for serving Special Education students, a stark contrast to its recent performance, hinting at a past program or strategy that could be revived. For parents, this school functions as a last-resort option for students who have not succeeded in traditional settings, but the data strongly suggests that families should explore other options like Talkington School For Young Women Leaders or Monterey High School if possible, as Dupre Academy’s challenges are profound and long-standing.
