Summary

Stamford High School is a small, rural high school in Stamford, Texas, serving approximately 173 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Stamford Independent School District (Isd).

This school stands out for its exceptional and consistent academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts. In the 2025-2026 school year, 84% of students were proficient in English I and 79.41% in English II, dramatically outperforming the state average and nearby schools like Haskell High School. Stamford High School was the only school in its comparison group to score above the state average in four out of five tested subjects. The school is also highly effective at serving its economically disadvantaged students, ranking in the 85th percentile for this group. A truly remarkable achievement is its English Language Learner program, which ranked #1 out of 1,437 schools in Texas in the 2023-2024 school year. The school also boasts a perfect 100% graduation rate in three of the last five years and a dropout rate that has been at or near 0.0% since 2020.

While Stamford High School is a strong performer, it has a notable weakness in U.S. History, where only 57.78% of students were proficient, well below the state average. Its overall state ranking has also seen a slight decline from a peak in 2023. However, the school invests heavily in its students, with per-student spending over $20,000 and a very low student-teacher ratio of 7.9:1, creating a resource-rich, small-classroom environment. For parents seeking a school with a strong focus on literacy, a proven track record of supporting all students, and a safe, high-graduation-rate environment, Stamford High School is an excellent choice.
