Summary:
The 75020 zip code area is home to 13 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 4 high schools, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Denison Independent School District (ISD) and the Sherman ISD. While the schools exhibit a range of academic performance, a few stand out, such as Mayes Elementary, which has the highest statewide ranking among the elementary schools, and Henry Scott Middle, which has the highest ranking among the middle schools.
The high schools in the area also demonstrate strong performance, with Denison High School ranking the highest among them and boasting a 95.3% four-year graduation rate and a low 0.7% dropout rate. However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic achievement, with some schools, such as Terrell Elementary, struggling with lower test scores and proficiency rates.
The relationship between socioeconomic status and academic performance is evident, as schools with higher poverty rates, like Perrin Early Childhood Center and Pathways High School, tend to have lower test scores and rankings. Additionally, the alternative and juvenile justice schools face unique challenges and demonstrate significantly lower performance compared to the traditional public schools in the area.
