Summary

Austin Academic Center is a small high school in Sulphur Springs, Texas, serving just 17 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Sulphur Springs Independent School District (ISD), which is ranked 436 out of 968 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Austin Academic Center has a significantly higher percentage of White students (76.47%) compared to surrounding schools, its academic performance is mixed. The school performed well on the U.S. History STAAR EOC exam, with 88% of students proficient or better, but struggled in other subjects like Biology (20% proficient or better) and English I Reading (0% proficient or better). Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (70.59% receive free or reduced-price lunch), which likely contributes to its academic challenges. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 5.4 could allow for more personalized attention.

Compared to the Sulphur Springs ISD and the state of Texas, Austin Academic Center's overall performance on STAAR EOC exams is generally lower, indicating that the school is struggling academically. The school also has a high dropout rate of 20%, which is significantly higher than surrounding schools like Sulphur Springs High School, Rains High School, and Cooper High School. However, the school ranks relatively high (307 out of 1913 Texas high schools) for male students, suggesting that it may be more effective in supporting certain student subgroups.
