Summary:
The 78408 zip code area of Corpus Christi, Texas is home to 4 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Corpus Christi Independent School District (ISD). This data set provides insights into the performance and demographics of these schools, revealing both strengths and challenges.
Among the standout schools is Roy Miller H S And Metro School Of Design, the largest high school with 1,531 students and the highest graduation rate at 91.0%. This school also has the lowest dropout rate of 1.6% across the district. In contrast, Driscoll Middle stands out for its exceptional performance on the Algebra I end-of-course exam, with 97.22% of students scoring proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state averages.
However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance, with the high school generally outperforming the middle and elementary schools, particularly in subjects like social studies and science. This suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to help improve student outcomes across all grade levels. Additionally, the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, ranging from 89.75% to 96.69%, indicate that the 78408 zip code area serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, which likely plays a significant role in the academic challenges faced by these schools.
