of 1,974 Texas High Schools

Better than 11% of Texas high schools

Summary

Estacado High School is a public magnet high school in Lubbock, Texas, serving 865 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Lubbock Independent School District, which is ranked 576 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Estacado High School consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of Texas high schools based on the SchoolDigger statewide ranking. Its performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is significantly lower than the district and state averages across all subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 11.81% in Algebra I to 36.46% in U.S. History. The school also has a lower 4-year graduation rate around 80-88% and a higher dropout rate ranging from 2.5% to 5.1% in recent years.

Despite being a magnet school, Estacado High School does not appear to be outperforming its non-magnet counterparts in the district, such as Coronado High School and Monterey High School, which have higher proficiency rates on STAAR EOC exams and better statewide rankings. The school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio suggest that it has access to significant resources, but these resources do not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students.
