Summary

Roma High School is a public high school serving 1,736 students in grades 9-12 in Roma, Texas. It is part of the Roma Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 78 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Roma High School has seen steady improvement in its four-year graduation rate, reaching 91.6% in the 2022-2023 school year, which is higher than the state average. The school's dropout rate has also decreased significantly, from 3.4% in 2021-2022 to 0.9% in 2022-2023. However, the school's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams has been mixed compared to the state average, with strengths in Algebra I and Biology but lower performance in English I Reading, English II Reading, and U.S. History. The school serves a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 86.58% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Rio Grande City High School and Preparatory For Early College High School, Roma High School's performance is generally lower, particularly in areas like graduation rates, dropout rates, and test scores. However, the school has shown signs of improvement over the years, and its relatively better performance among English Language Learners and Migrant students is an interesting finding that warrants further investigation.
