Summary:
Zip code 76711 in Beverly Hills, TX, is home to a single high school, Harmony School Of Innovation - Waco, a public charter school serving grades 6 through 12 with 614 students and a highly economically disadvantaged population (86% free/reduced lunch).
Harmony School Of Innovation - Waco presents a striking paradox: it boasts an impressive 98% graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year, yet its academic proficiency on STAAR exams is consistently below both district and state averages. The school's state ranking has been improving, moving from the 30th percentile (2 stars) in 2023-2024 to the 41st percentile (2 stars) in 2025-2026, indicating incremental progress. However, a critical red flag is the dropout rate of 1.3%, which is more than three times higher than the district average of 0.4% for its network, Harmony Public Schools - North Texas.
The most concerning area is mathematics, where proficiency is alarmingly low—only 2.7% of 7th graders were proficient in math in 2025-2026, compared to the state average of 29.41%. This represents a deepening crisis, as 7th-grade math proficiency dropped from 8.64% the previous year. On a positive note, the school outperformed the state average in U.S. History (71.83% vs. 70.17%), suggesting a potential strength in that subject. The school's performance is dramatically lower than its own district's averages, indicating that while the charter network has a 3-star rating, this specific campus faces unique challenges in translating its high graduation rate into academic mastery.
