Summary

Maypearl High School is a small, rural school in Maypearl, TX, serving 373 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Maypearl Independent School District (Isd). The most critical story for this school is its significant and consistent decline over the past decade, dropping from a 4-star, top-tier performer (73rd percentile) in 2015-2016 to a 2-star school in the 30th percentile today. This downward trend stands in stark contrast to nearby schools like Grandview High School (85th percentile) and Midlothian Heritage High School (80th percentile), which have remained consistently high-performing.

A major driver of this low ranking is an exceptionally low Algebra I proficiency rate of just 4.05%, far below the state average of 54.03% and dramatically lower than every nearby school. For comparison, Itasca High School had a 16.98% proficiency rate, while Grandview (63.37%) and Midlothian Heritage (53.24%) are in a completely different league. This single subject appears to be a critical weakness. Interestingly, the school has a low student-to-teacher ratio of 11.5:1, a potential asset for individualized attention that is not translating into strong academic outcomes, especially when compared to larger schools like Midlothian High School (17:1) or Alvarado High School (16.2:1).

Despite the academic struggles, the school has maintained a high graduation rate, consistently above 90% over the last five years. This creates a paradox where the school successfully gets students to graduate but is not preparing them to be proficient in core subjects like math. The school also shows a striking contrast in performance for different student groups, with exceptional results for its Multi-racial students (85th percentile) but significant struggles for most other groups. While Maypearl is generally on par with other struggling schools like Itasca and Venus High School, its unique trajectory of falling from a high-performing school suggests systemic issues that require targeted intervention, particularly in math instruction.
