Summary:
The four high schools in zip code 78664 (Round Rock, TX) serve grades 9-12 and are part of the highly-rated Round Rock Independent School District (Isd), offering a mix of large comprehensive campuses and specialized alternative schools.
Cedar Ridge High School stands out as the top-performing traditional school, with the highest state ranking (68th percentile) and strong scores in Biology (78.23%) and U.S. History (81.01%), along with a low dropout rate of 0.3% and a 97.2% graduation rate. Stony Point High School has shown remarkable improvement, jumping over 200 spots in state rankings over three years to the 63rd percentile, and leads in English I proficiency (63.08%) while achieving the highest graduation rate (97.9%). In contrast, Success High School faces significant challenges with a 4th percentile ranking, a 71.4% graduation rate, and a 12.7% dropout rate, while Round Rock Opport Center Daep serves a small, specialized population with intensive support, reflected in its extremely high per-student spending.
A key takeaway is the systemic "Algebra I gap," where all schools score far below the state average of 54.03%, with Cedar Ridge at 35.41% and Stony Point at 22.73%, indicating a district-wide challenge in foundational math. Additionally, the data highlights different missions: Cedar Ridge and Stony Point serve general populations with similar metrics, while Success High School and the Opportunity Center cater to at-risk students, requiring higher per-student spending ($13,529 and $1,464,163 respectively) compared to the comprehensive schools (around $8,780). This underscores the financial investment needed for alternative education, though direct comparisons between these campus types can be misleading.
