Summary

Del Rio High School is a large public high school in Del Rio, TX, serving 2,447 students in grades 9-12 as part of the San Felipe-Del Rio Consolidated Independent School District, where nearly 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has consistently held a 2-star rating over the past decade, indicating stable but below-average performance compared to other Texas high schools, though its graduation rate is a bright spot at around 90%.

One of the most important things to understand about Del Rio High School is how it fits into the local school landscape. It sits in the middle of a three-tier system within the same district: it is outperformed significantly by the selective Del Rio Early College High School (ranked in the 94th percentile with 5 stars), but vastly outperforms the Blended Academy (ranked in the 5th percentile with 0 stars). The academic proficiency gap is stark—for example, in Algebra I, Del Rio High School had a 32% proficiency rate, compared to 79% at the Early College and just 4% at Blended Academy. Additionally, Del Rio High School has a much higher student-teacher ratio (21:1) than nearby alternatives like the Early College (11:1) or Heritage Academy Of Del Rio (14:1), meaning students may receive less individualized attention.

While the school’s graduation rate is strong, it contrasts with low academic proficiency on state assessments—only 32% of students were proficient in Algebra I and 40% in English I Reading in the most recent year. This suggests the school is effective at keeping students on track to graduate, but may not be fully preparing them for college or careers. On a positive note, the school has shown exceptional support for certain student groups, such as African American and at-risk students, who have ranked in the 74th and 72nd percentiles respectively in recent years. However, the school struggles with English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which is a critical concern given that nearly 70% of the student body faces economic challenges.
