Summary

New Boston High School is a public high school in New Boston, Texas, serving 343 students in grades 9-12 as part of the New Boston Independent School District. The school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating stable performance, despite being ranked 395 out of 961 districts in the state.

One of New Boston High School's key strengths is its high graduation rates, which have consistently exceeded 95% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average. The school also has relatively low dropout rates, ranging from 0.5% to 1.2%. However, the school's performance on STAAR EOC exams is mixed, with strong results in subjects like English II Reading and U.S. History, but lower proficiency rates in Algebra I compared to the state and district. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with Hispanic and Gifted and Talented students performing well, while White and At-Risk students struggle compared to their peers statewide.

Compared to nearby schools, New Boston High School generally outperforms Liberty-Eylau High School and Options Early Graduation High School, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Pleasant Grove High School and Redwater High School in areas such as test scores and graduation rates. The school's relatively low performance in Algebra I and the achievement gaps among student subgroups suggest that the school could benefit from focusing on improving math instruction and implementing more targeted support for underperforming student groups.
