Summary:
The 77962 zip code area is home to 3 schools - Ganado Elementary, Ganado High School, and Ganado Jh (middle school) - all part of the Ganado Independent School District (Isd). The data reveals that Ganado Elementary stands out as a top-performing school, consistently exceeding state averages on STAAR reading and math tests and ranking in the top 25% of Texas elementary schools. Ganado High School also impresses with a 95.8% four-year graduation rate and 0% dropout rate, along with strong performance on the STAAR EOC Algebra I exam.
While Ganado Elementary and High School demonstrate academic strengths, the middle school, Ganado Jh, has more mixed results, with some grade levels and subjects performing above the state average and others lagging behind. This variability in middle school performance suggests a potential need for further investigation into the school's curriculum, teaching methods, or resource allocation to identify areas for improvement. Across all three schools, relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 57.32% to 59.26%, indicate a significant population of students from low-income households, which could present unique challenges and resource needs that the district may need to address to support student success.
In terms of key metrics, Ganado Elementary stands out with a low student-teacher ratio of 14.6, while Ganado High School spends the most per student at $13,255. The high school also has the lowest student-teacher ratio at 10.3, which may contribute to its impressive graduation and dropout rates. Overall, the data highlights the strengths of Ganado Elementary and Ganado High School, while also identifying potential areas for improvement at the middle school level, and the potential impact of high poverty rates across all schools in the area.
