Summary:
Zip code 78375 is home to a single high school, Premont Collegiate High School, which serves grades 6 through 12 with 387 students and is part of the Premont Independent School District (Isd).
Premont Collegiate High School serves a student body where over 90% of students are economically disadvantaged, and it has a low student-teacher ratio of 12.9:1. The school's state ranking has been volatile, dropping from the 33rd percentile in 2024-2025 to the 22nd percentile in 2025-2026. Despite spending $17,784 per student—well above the state average—academic performance in most subjects lags behind state benchmarks. The most significant challenge is in mathematics, where proficiency rates in 6th and 7th grade are roughly half the state average, and only 24.19% of students are proficient in Algebra I compared to 54.03% statewide. English scores have shown extreme volatility, with English I proficiency jumping from 0% in 2024-2025 to 51.61% in 2025-2026, suggesting possible changes in curriculum or student cohorts.
There are notable bright spots. The school achieved a 93.9% graduation rate and a low 1.8% dropout rate, indicating strong student retention. U.S. History performance was an outlier, with the school exceeding the state average in 2024-2025 (71.67% vs. 67.94%), though it dropped below the state average the following year. This inconsistency, along with the high spending relative to outcomes, raises questions about resource allocation. For parents, the school offers a personalized learning environment with small class sizes and a focus on keeping students in school, but it faces clear academic challenges, particularly in math, that require targeted improvement efforts.
