Summary

Rise Academy is a small high school in Weatherford, TX, serving 75 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Weatherford Independent School District (Isd).

Rise Academy faces significant academic challenges, earning a 1-star rating and ranking in the 15th percentile statewide. This performance is a stark contrast to nearby schools like Aledo High School (94th percentile) and Brock High School (90th percentile). The school’s STAAR test results are particularly concerning, with a 0% proficiency rate in both Algebra I and English I Reading. This suggests a fundamental breakdown in core academic instruction, especially since Algebra I is a critical gateway course. The school’s student-to-teacher ratio of 23.4:1 is the highest in the area, meaning students may receive less individualized attention than at other schools. While performance is slightly better in U.S. History (47% proficient) and English II (41% proficient), the overall data points to a school in need of significant support.

The combination of very low enrollment, extremely poor test scores, and a high student-to-teacher ratio strongly suggests that Rise Academy may function as an alternative or disciplinary placement campus within the district. This would explain the dramatic performance gap between it and the main Weatherford High School, which is less than two miles away and ranks in the 53rd percentile. The school’s subgroup performance is universally low, indicating systemic challenges rather than issues isolated to a particular group of students. For parents, this school represents a very different educational reality compared to the high-performing options available in the surrounding area.
