Summary

Robert Lee School in Robert Lee, TX, is a small, rural alternative school serving 262 students in grades PK-12 within the Robert Lee Independent School District (Isd), where about half of the students are economically disadvantaged.

This school stands out for its strong commitment to keeping students on track to graduate. It boasts a consistently high graduation rate, often reaching 100%, and a very low dropout rate. However, its academic performance is a mixed picture. While early elementary grades show solid proficiency in reading and math, the school struggles more in middle school, where test scores can vary significantly from year to year. For example, 8th-grade reading proficiency has swung from 33% to 70% and back to 42% in recent years. This volatility is common in small schools, where a single class can greatly affect averages. Compared to nearby Blackwell School, just 16 miles away, Robert Lee’s middle school proficiency rates are often 30 to 50 percentage points lower, though it spends less per student ($14,339) than Blackwell ($21,973).

The key takeaway for parents is that Robert Lee School excels at supporting students to graduation, but it faces challenges in consistently bringing them to grade-level academic proficiency, especially in middle school. The school’s high graduation rate and low dropout rate suggest a supportive environment, but the academic results indicate that some students may need extra help to master core subjects like math and reading. This makes it a school where a parent’s active involvement in monitoring their child’s academic progress could be especially valuable.
