Summary

Tioga School in Tioga, TX, is a single-campus school serving 664 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade in the rural Tioga Independent School District (Isd), with about 31% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Tioga School’s standout strength is its ability to keep students on track to graduate. The school has maintained a perfect 0.0% dropout rate for five consecutive years and a graduation rate averaging 98.6% over the same period. This is especially impressive when compared to a nearby charter school, Founders Classical Academy Of Prosper, which had a 3.6% dropout rate in 2023-2024. While Tioga’s test scores in elementary and middle school math and science are lower than state averages—a common challenge for many schools—its high school End-of-Course exams are a clear area of excellence. In the most recent data, Tioga significantly outperformed the state in Biology (89.66% vs. 70.51%), English I (77.97% vs. 55.43%), and English II (84.48% vs. 59.88%). This strong high school performance is a key reason for the school’s perfect graduation rate.

Tioga also offers a lower student-teacher ratio (14.7:1) than Founders Classical Academy (16.8:1), which can mean more individualized attention for students. While Founders Classical Academy generally posts higher test scores, it serves a much more affluent population (only 9% economically disadvantaged), making a direct comparison misleading. Tioga’s real advantage is its success in supporting a more economically diverse student body all the way through to graduation. The school does face a persistent challenge in middle school math, where proficiency has dropped as low as 11% in 7th grade, and in 5th-grade science, which has underperformed the state average. These are areas where targeted support could help build on the school’s strong foundation in student retention and high school success.

Open Quote Wonderful teachers who are not paid what they are worth. This school could be amazing, if only it received all the funding it deserves. The elementary building is in disrepair and smells strongly of mold. Close Quote
