Summary:
The three public schools in zip code 76448, serving students from Pre-K through 12th grade in the Eastland Independent School District (Isd), present a mixed picture of academic performance, with one standout, one consistent performer, and one school in significant decline.
Eastland Middle is the district's academic powerhouse, earning 4-star ratings and ranking in the 70th percentile among Texas middle schools. It excels in advanced coursework, achieving a perfect 100% proficiency rate on the Algebra I End-of-Course exam, though it struggles with standard grade-level math. Eastland High School is a model of stability, maintaining a 3-star rating with a near-perfect 98.8% graduation rate and extremely low 0.3% dropout rate. It shines in English and Biology but lags in Algebra I and U.S. History. In contrast, Siebert Elementary has experienced a dramatic decline, dropping from a 4-star school (77th percentile) to a 1-star school (29th percentile) in just two years, with only 18.84% of 4th graders proficient in math compared to the state average of 49.28%.
Key metrics show the district serves 969 students with a high economic disadvantage rate averaging 54.4% free/reduced lunch. Spending varies significantly by level, from $8,675 per elementary student to $11,927 per high school student, while student-teacher ratios are small, ranging from 9:1 at the high school to 13.2:1 at the elementary level. The data suggests a "feeder pattern" where math struggles at Siebert Elementary appear to carry over to Eastland Middle, while the high school's strengths in English and Biology may stem from solid middle school foundations. Overall, the district ranks in the 50th percentile statewide, offering a solid but uneven educational experience.
