Summary

Milford School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in the Milford Independent School District, with 261 students and a student-teacher ratio of 12.4. Despite lower test scores compared to the state and nearby schools, Milford School has consistently maintained a remarkable 100% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate over the past few years.

Milford School's test scores, particularly in reading and English, are generally lower than the state and district averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading range from 14.29% for 3rd grade to 40.74% for English II, compared to the state averages of 52.02% to 56.22% respectively. However, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.88% to 75.71% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. This suggests that Milford School may be serving a more challenging student population, which could contribute to the lower test scores.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Penelope School, Abbott School, Covington School, Bynum School, and Avalon School, generally have higher test scores and lower free/reduced lunch rates compared to Milford School. This suggests that Milford School's alternative setting and higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students may require tailored strategies and resources to support student success.
