Summary

South Texas Independent School District (Isd) Medical Professions in Olmito, TX, is a magnet high school serving 820 students in grades 9 through 12, part of the highly-rated South Texas Independent School District (Isd).

This school stands out for its exceptional academic performance, consistently ranking in the top 15-20% of Texas high schools over the past decade. In the most recent testing year, proficiency rates in Biology (80.52%), English I Reading (73.17%), English II Reading (78.6%), and U.S. History (85.07%) far exceed state averages and dramatically outperform nearby schools like San Benito High School and Pace Early College High School. The school also boasts a near-perfect graduation rate of 99.1% and a 0.0% dropout rate for the last three years, a stark contrast to San Benito High School's 90.6% graduation rate and Triumph Public High Schools-Brownsville's 76.5% rate. Notably, the school is exceptionally effective at serving students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the 93rd percentile statewide for this subgroup.

While the school excels overall, there are two areas of interest. First, Algebra I proficiency (48.08%) is below the district average, a consistent trend that may warrant attention. Second, performance for Gifted and Talented students has ranked in the bottom half of the state for three consecutive years, suggesting a potential need for additional enrichment. Despite these points, the school's focused medical and health science curriculum, combined with its consistent high-level performance and ability to overcome socioeconomic barriers, makes it a powerful alternative to traditional and charter schools in the area, such as Los Fresnos High School and Idea Brownsville College Preparatory.
