Summary:
In zip code 77664, there is one high school, Warren High School, serving grades 9 through 12 in the small, rural community of Warren, Texas, with a total enrollment of 339 students.
Warren High School presents a mixed picture of performance. On the positive side, the school boasts an exceptionally high graduation rate of 97.7% and a very low dropout rate of 0.5%, both far better than state averages. The school also has a low student-teacher ratio of 10.5:1, suggesting smaller class sizes, and spends $12,063 per student. However, these positive indicators contrast with generally below-average standardized test scores. The school's state ranking has declined significantly over the past three years, dropping from the 55th percentile to the 36th percentile, and it now holds a 2-star rating from the state. A key area of strength is Biology, where 75.81% of students were proficient, outperforming the state average. In contrast, Algebra I is a major weakness, with proficiency plummeting from 51.25% to just 34.04% in one year, far below the state average of 54.03%.
The most notable finding is the paradox between the school's high graduation rate and its low test scores, which suggests a potential gap between the requirements for a diploma and the academic standards measured by state assessments. Performance in English I and II is consistently just below the state average, while U.S. History proficiency is also a concern. With 54.28% of students economically disadvantaged, the school serves a community with moderate-to-high need. The declining state ranking and the sharp drop in Algebra I scores are critical areas of concern for parents to investigate, especially given the school's investment in smaller class sizes. The school is part of the Warren Independent School District (Isd), which is ranked in the 21st percentile of Texas districts.
