Summary

Milano High School is a small, rural high school in Milano, TX, serving 148 students in grades 9-12 as part of the highly-rated Milano Independent School District (Isd). After a period of lower ratings, the school has achieved consistent 4-star performance for five consecutive years, peaking in the 88th percentile statewide. This turnaround is driven by an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 6.6:1, which allows for personalized attention and strong support systems. The school boasts a 0% dropout rate and a 94.1% graduation rate, keeping nearly all students on track to earn their diplomas.

Milano stands out dramatically from nearby schools in its ability to support diverse learners. It ranks in the 99th percentile statewide for serving English Language Learners (8th out of 1,195 schools) and in the 80th percentile for students from low socio-economic backgrounds, who make up nearly half the student body. This is a stark contrast to neighboring schools like Hearne Jh/High School (11th percentile overall) and Cameron Yoe High School (28th percentile). While Mumford High School (18 miles away) achieves elite test scores with higher efficiency, Milano’s model focuses on intensive, resource-rich support—spending $16,916 per student compared to Mumford’s $9,118—to ensure every child succeeds.

However, the most recent data (2025-2026) shows a notable dip, with the school’s overall rank dropping from the 85th to the 68th percentile and its star rating falling from 4 to 3. Proficiency in Algebra I and English I Reading declined, and performance for Gifted and Talented students has been a persistent weakness, ranking in the 2nd percentile for two consecutive years. This suggests the school may need to refocus on challenging its highest-achieving students while maintaining its exceptional support for those who need it most. Despite this warning sign, Milano’s strong foundation and proven ability to serve vulnerable populations provide a solid base for recovery.
