Summary:
Zip code 75402 in Greenville, TX, is home to two high schools within the Greenville Independent School District (Isd): the comprehensive Greenville High School and the alternative New Horizons Learning Center, serving grades 9-12 in a predominantly low-income community.
Greenville High School is the area's primary high school with 1,520 students. While it ranks in the bottom quartile of Texas high schools (24th percentile), it shows a promising upward trend in its state ranking over the past three years. Its standout strengths are a strong 95.3% graduation rate and a very low 0.5% dropout rate, both outperforming the district average. In contrast, New Horizons Learning Center is a small, specialized school with only 77 students, designed for at-risk or credit-recovery students. It spends significantly more per student ($19,880 vs. $9,686) and maintains a much lower student-teacher ratio (9.7:1), but struggles with academic outcomes, including a lower graduation rate (81.5%) and a higher dropout rate (2.7%).
Both schools face significant academic challenges compared to the state average. In the 2025-2026 school year, Greenville High School achieved an average STAAR EOC proficiency of 46.8%, while New Horizons Learning Center averaged just 10.2%, far below the state average of 62.0%. However, there is a glimmer of improvement at Greenville High, which saw dramatic year-over-year gains in subjects like Algebra I (from 17.91% to 40.78% proficiency). The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (78.75% at Greenville High, 85.71% at New Horizons) provides critical context for understanding these performance figures, highlighting the profound challenges both schools work to overcome.
