Summary

Orange Grove High School is a mid-sized high school in Orange Grove, TX, serving 496 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Orange Grove Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the top 21% of Texas districts. The school has earned a consistent 3-star state rating for the last five years and stands out for its strong academic performance in Biology and English, with proficiency rates well above state averages. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, 85% of students were proficient in Biology (compared to 71% statewide) and 73% in English I Reading (compared to 55% statewide), making it a top performer among nearby schools like Calallen High School and Alice High School.

One of the school's most notable strengths is its exceptional graduation rate, consistently above 96% for the past five years—higher than Calallen (93%) and significantly above Alice (86.4%). Orange Grove also excels in supporting English Language Learners, ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide in 2025-2026, a dramatic improvement from just a few years prior. Additionally, the school maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.1, offering more individualized attention than larger peers like Alice (18.1). Interestingly, Orange Grove achieves these results with lower spending per student ($11,935) than Banquete High School ($16,097), yet outperforms Banquete academically, highlighting its operational efficiency.

However, the school faces challenges in Algebra I, where proficiency (51%) falls below the state average (54%), a consistent trend over recent years. Performance for specific student groups, such as Special Education and Gifted & Talented, has also shown volatility year-over-year, suggesting room for more consistent support. Despite these areas for growth, Orange Grove stands out as a highly effective and efficient school, particularly when compared to nearby Alice High School, which has higher poverty rates and lower academic outcomes. For parents, Orange Grove offers a solid, supportive environment with strong graduation rates and standout reading and science programs.
