Summary

Tom Bean High School is a small, rural high school in Tom Bean, TX, serving 213 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Tom Bean Independent School District (Isd). The school is on a strong upward trajectory, rising from the 30th percentile statewide just four years ago to the 67th percentile today, and it boasts a perfect 100% graduation rate with a 0% dropout rate for the 2023-2024 school year. With a low student-teacher ratio of 10:1, the school provides a focused learning environment that has shown particular strength in English Language Arts, where proficiency rates in English I and English II significantly outpace state averages and surpass those at nearby Anna High School and Sherman High School.

Tom Bean High School excels in supporting specific student groups, with its low socioeconomic status students ranking in the 79th percentile statewide and its English Language Learners ranking in the 85th percentile—both earning 4-star ratings. This effectiveness in closing opportunity gaps stands in contrast to many nearby schools where these subgroups often struggle. However, the school faces a notable gender gap, with male students performing significantly better than female students, and it has a critical weakness in Special Education, where performance dropped to the 12th percentile in the most recent year. Additionally, the school consistently struggles with Algebra I, where only 47.54% of students are proficient compared to the state average of 54.03%, a challenge shared by many area schools like Howe High School and Sherman High School.

Compared to its peers, Tom Bean is a school on the rise, while others have stagnated or declined. For instance, Anna High School has dropped from the 69th to the 45th percentile over the same period. Interestingly, Tom Bean is identical in size to Trenton High School, located just 12 miles away, but Trenton is already a top performer ranking in the 77th percentile. Tom Bean’s per-student spending of $12,269 is moderate—less than the struggling Anna Academic Achievement Center but more than high-performing Van Alstyne High School—suggesting efficient use of resources. To continue its improvement, the school must urgently address its Special Education performance and find ways to boost Algebra I scores to match its other academic achievements.
