Summary

Spring High School in Spring, TX, is a large comprehensive high school serving 2,594 students in grades 9-12 within the Spring Independent School District (Isd), a district that ranks in the bottom 25% of Texas school districts. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 15-16% of Texas high schools over the past five years, with academic performance on state assessments significantly below both district and state averages across all core subjects. Nearly 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and while the graduation rate (85.1%) is slightly above the district average, it lags behind state averages, and the dropout rate (3.7%) is the highest among traditional high schools in the area.

When compared to nearby schools, Spring High's performance is notably lower than Klein Collins High School in the neighboring Klein Independent School District (Isd), which serves a more affluent student body and achieves dramatically better results, including a 94.2% graduation rate and a 0.6% dropout rate. Within the same district, Carl Wunsche Senior High School, a magnet/early college program just 1.8 miles away, ranks in the 97th percentile with over 90% of students proficient in all subjects, creating a stark contrast. Spring High's proficiency rates (e.g., 30.7% in Algebra I, 46.9% in Biology) are a fraction of Wunsche's (83.9% and 96.5%, respectively), likely due to a "brain drain" effect where motivated students are drawn to the magnet program.

Despite these challenges, there are some positive signs. Recent interventions may be taking effect, as Algebra I proficiency has risen from 10.4% to 30.7% and Biology from 27.4% to 46.9% in recent years. The school also shows remarkable effectiveness for specific small student populations, such as Pacific Islander students, who have consistently ranked in the top 25% of the state. However, a concerning trend is the dramatic decline in support for Gifted and Talented students, whose state ranking plummeted from the 93rd percentile in 2021-2022 to the 16th percentile in 2024-2025, suggesting a major change in programming or resource allocation that warrants investigation.

My 9th grader has a 3.8 grad point average. Is a highly accomplished and recognized in extracurricular programs and is a record breaking athlete who’s begging me to not send her back to this school again next year. The fights have her stressed out. The record keeping is terrible which is effecting her grade point average. She doesn’t feel supported and the organizations are catty and clicky. We will not be returning to Spring High next year. If you can... take your child to another school district all together! People who are happy seldom write reviews and people who have nothing invested seldom express concerns but people who are not being heard or helped write reviews. Spring High is a S#t show! You have been warned. Close Quote

This school, is literally my dream school. Everything about it is PERFECT. I especially love the teachers, they are always supportive. The principals are very nice too, if you have a problem with somebody bullying, they stop it. Ive never been to a school so dedicated to making it's students so happy while educating them with the knowledge they need for College. Close Quote
