Summary:
Zip code 75208 in Dallas, Texas, is home to 10 schools serving elementary through high school grades, predominantly within the Dallas Independent School District (Isd), with one charter school, Texans Can Academy - Oak Cliff, belonging to the Texans Can Academies district. The area serves a predominantly low-income student population, with an average free/reduced lunch rate of over 86%, and includes six elementary schools, two middle schools, and two high schools.
The standout school in the area is Rosemont Upper, a middle school that has earned a 5-star rating for three consecutive years and ranks in the 98th percentile among Texas middle schools, with 100% proficiency in 8th Grade Reading and Algebra I. Its counterpart, Rosemont Lower - Chris V Semos Building, also benefits from a more economically advantaged student body and shows strong historical performance. The two middle schools, including W E Greiner Exploratory Arts Academy (a 4-star school with 97.7% Algebra I proficiency), are the highest-performing schools in the zip code. Among elementary schools, Winnetka Elementary is a consistent 4-star performer, while Hogg New Technical Center struggles with a 1-star rating.
The two high schools present a stark contrast: Sunset High School is a stable, comprehensive school with a graduation rate of 85.2%, above the district average, while Texans Can Academy - Oak Cliff faces severe challenges with a 0-star rating, a 23.8% graduation rate, and a 30.6% dropout rate. Spending per student varies widely, from $9,472 at Texans Can Academy to $15,294 at Rosemont Upper, but does not clearly correlate with performance, as John F Peeler Elementary spends $14,340 per student yet ranks lower than Winnetka Elementary, which spends $10,751. Overall, the data reveals significant disparities in educational quality within this small geographic area, with middle schools excelling and high schools showing extreme variation.
