Summary:
The 78339 zip code area is home to 3 schools in the Banquete Independent School District (ISD), including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools face socioeconomic challenges, with high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, some standout performance can be seen, particularly at the middle and high school levels.
Banquete High School stands out with a strong 97.9% 4-year graduation rate and a low 0.2% dropout rate. The school also performs well on STAAR EOC exams, with over 50% proficiency in English I/II Reading, Biology, and U.S. History. Meanwhile, Banquete J H (Middle School) outperforms the state average in STAAR Reading and Science, with impressive proficiency rates in 8th grade.
In contrast, Banquete Elementary struggles with STAAR proficiency, lagging behind the state averages in Reading, Mathematics, and Science. The district-wide challenge appears to be in Algebra I, with both the middle and high school underperforming the state average. Despite these areas for improvement, the schools in the 78339 zip code demonstrate pockets of excellence and a focus on supporting their students, as evidenced by the relatively low student-teacher ratios across the district.
