Summary

Miles High School is a small, high-performing rural school in Miles, TX, serving 217 students in grades 7-12 as part of the top-rated Miles Independent School District (Isd). This school stands out for its exceptional academic results, including a perfect 100% graduation rate over the last five years and a near-zero dropout rate, all supported by a very low student-to-teacher ratio of 9.4:1. In core subjects like Algebra I, Biology, and English, Miles students consistently outperform state averages and nearby schools, such as Central High School and Lake View High School in San Angelo, as well as Ballinger High School. For example, 85.71% of Miles students were proficient in Algebra I, compared to the state average of 54.03%, and 96.55% were proficient in Biology, far exceeding the state's 70.51%.

Compared to other high-performing rural schools in the area, Miles High School holds its own and often leads. It is most comparable to Wall High School, which ranks in the 91st percentile statewide, but Miles has a slight edge in several key subjects and a perfect graduation record. When compared to Veribest High School, just 9.84 miles away, Miles demonstrates far greater consistency and higher overall performance, outperforming Veribest in nearly every End-of-Course exam. The school's per-student spending of $12,754 supports a personalized learning environment that helps students thrive, especially in STEM fields.

While Miles High School excels in most areas, there are a couple of points for parents to note. The school has shown a strong ability to recover from challenges, as seen in a dip in rankings in 2024-2025 followed by a rebound in 2025-2026. However, 8th Grade Social Studies is a persistent weak spot, with only 43.18% of students proficient in 2025-2026, though this is still above the state average. Additionally, the school serves male students exceptionally well, ranking in the 91st percentile, while female students rank in the 83rd percentile, suggesting an area for continued focus. Overall, Miles High School offers a supportive, high-achieving environment that prepares students well for the future.
