Summary

Brackenridge High School is a public magnet high school in San Antonio, Texas, serving 1,656 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD), which is ranked 790 out of 961 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Brackenridge High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade. The school's performance is particularly low for its Hispanic and White student populations, ranking in the bottom 30% of Texas high schools for these subgroups. However, the school's African American students perform relatively better, ranking in the top 50% of Texas high schools. The school's English Language Learner and Special Education students also perform better than the overall school ranking, placing in the top 50% of Texas high schools for these subgroups.

Brackenridge High School's academic performance lags behind the state and district averages, as well as many of the nearby charter schools, such as KIPP University Prep High School and Idea Carver College Preparatory. This may be attributed to the high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, with over 87% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio being on par with the district and state averages, addressing the socioeconomic factors and implementing targeted interventions could be key to improving Brackenridge High School's overall academic outcomes.
