Whitney High School has 437 students and a low student-teacher ratio of 10.9 to 1, which suggests smaller class sizes. The school shows a strong upward trend in its state ranking, moving from the 57th percentile (3 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 73rd percentile (4 stars) in 2025-2026. It boasts a high graduation rate of 96.4% and a very low dropout rate of 0.4%. The school excels in several subjects on the STAAR End-of-Course exams, particularly in English II Reading, where 78.95% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, well above the state average of 59.88%. It also outperforms the state in Biology (77.78% vs. 70.51%) and U.S. History (82.86% vs. 70.17%). However, Algebra I is a clear area of concern, with only 48.51% of students proficient, which is below the state average of 54.03%.
Despite nearly 60% of students being economically disadvantaged, Whitney High School achieves strong results in most subjects and maintains a high graduation rate. The school’s rapid improvement in state ranking from 3 to 4 stars in a single year is notable, and its exceptional performance in English II Reading highlights a particularly effective English department. The main takeaway for parents is that this school offers a well-rounded education with standout humanities and science programs, but families should be aware of the math gap in Algebra I, which may require additional support for students pursuing STEM pathways.
