Summary

Woodsboro High School is a small, rural public school in Woodsboro, TX, serving 233 students in grades 6 through 12 within the Woodsboro Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the bottom 10% of Texas districts. The school stands out for its exceptional graduation rate of 97.1% and a 0.0% dropout rate, far outperforming nearby Taft High School (88.4% graduation, 3.0% dropout) and Coastal Horizons Academy (31.3% graduation, 21.1% dropout). However, this success in keeping students in school contrasts with low state test scores—for example, 0% proficiency in 7th Grade Math and 18.42% in Algebra I—suggesting the school prioritizes retention and support over rigorous academic benchmarks.

A bright spot is English II Reading, where Woodsboro’s proficiency rate of 64.86% exceeds the state average of 59.88%, a feat not matched by Sinton High School (53.62%) or Taft (55.22%). The school also shows a unique strength with Gifted and Talented students, who ranked in the 76th percentile statewide in 2022-2023, earning a 4-star rating. Additionally, Special Education students have seen a dramatic turnaround, jumping from the 14th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 49th percentile in 2025-2026, indicating recent interventions are working. Yet, the school struggles with economically disadvantaged students, whose performance dropped from the 37th to the 18th percentile over the same period, even as the percentage of students on free or reduced lunch fell sharply from 62.6% to 42.5%.

Woodsboro’s performance is volatile, with a peak in 2022-2023 (41st percentile) followed by a decline to the 28th percentile in 2025-2026. The school spends $16,520 per student, more than higher-performing Sinton ($11,955) but less than similarly sized Refugio High School ($20,764), suggesting spending alone doesn’t drive outcomes. With a low student-teacher ratio of 10.8:1, Woodsboro has the resources to improve, but its focus on graduation over test scores creates a paradox for parents seeking both high retention and strong academic preparation.

What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, October 26, 2021

I hate lumping all the staff in the same category because there are a few teachers that actually educate and care for the students future. Sports seems to be priority although the athletics programs are mediocre at best, so the students are stuck with coaches in the classroom that have no interest in actually teaching. The principal is rude and arrogant and seems to believe that she deserves respect based solely on her position.
Also seems the students with alumni parents (with money) seem to garner favor with staff and do not follow the same rules.
In closing I would like to reiterate there are a few good teachers here and I regret they do not have more influence in this school. So if you are thinking of moving to Woodsboro do your kids a favor and move 5 minutes down the road to Refugio they will thank you for it!! There is a good reason Woodsboro ISD numbers are diminishing yearly. Close Quote
