🎓 Academic rigor
AP + advanced-course offerings
Elite — exceptional AP + advanced course breadth
Top 3.7% of US high schools
✅ Gifted/talented program
Source: federal Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC 2020-21). CRDC reports what's offered + enrolled — it doesn't collect AP exam pass rates (College Board owns that data and doesn't release it school-level).
SAT / ACT participation
CRDC federal data · 2020-21Top 3.4% by test-taker volume
Source: federal Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC 2020-21). Volume — not score — is what's reported here. A higher count means more students at this school are entering the college admissions pipeline. Note: 2020-21 was COVID-disrupted; some districts (especially those that stayed remote longer) report unusually low or zero takers.
👩🏫 Teacher workforce · federal CRDC
Teacher experience & reliability
Source: federal Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC 2017-18 — the most recent vintage that publishes per-school teacher quality fields; the 2020-21 sweep had them suppressed). "Inexperienced" = teachers in their first or second year. "Chronic absence" = teachers absent 10+ days/year.
🏛️ Federal Title I context
Title I Schoolwide eligible
≥40% FRPL — qualifies for Title I Schoolwide program
40-74% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. The district can use Title I funds across the whole school under federal Schoolwide Program rules.
Source: NCES Common Core of Data, free/reduced-price lunch eligibility. The actual Title I designation is a district decision and may differ from eligibility — but the federal eligibility math is what we show here. We don't claim to assert whether the district formally chose to enroll this school in Title I.
🤘 Texas Reach
Where this school's graduates land after high school.
What share of Madison HS (San Antonio)'s 2022 graduating class enrolled in college the following fall — and how that splits across Texas higher education. Source-of-truth for college-going at the high-school level in Texas.
North East ISD.
Source: TEA TAPR 2022-23, Domain 4 CCMR + Higher Ed Enrollment. Headline rate is "enrolled in Texas higher ed the following fall." Initial dataset covers a curated set of high-profile TX high schools — full per-school ingest pending the THECB open-records data response.
⭐ Texas School Quality
How TEA grades this school: CCMR + A-F accountability.
Two cohort-level signals TEA publishes for every Texas public high school: the share of graduates ready for college, career, or military service (CCMR), and the state's official A-F accountability grade.
What counts as CCMR-ready? →
Under TEA TAPR Domain 4, a graduate counts as CCMR-ready if they meet any one of: a qualifying SAT/ACT score; a qualifying TSI assessment; AP/IB exam scores of 3+; dual-credit college courses with C or better; an associate's degree at HS graduation; an industry-based certification; an OnRamps course; military enlistment; or an aligned career-prep program. The metric rolls up "is this graduate prepared for what comes next?" into one comparable number.
Source: TEA TAPR 2022-23 — Domain 4 CCMR + A-F Accountability. CCMR cohort = HS Class of 2023. A-F grade per Texas Education Code §39.054. Initial dataset is high-profile Texas HSs only — full ingest follows the TEA TAPR downloadable-file processing.
Chronic absenteeism
Why this matters to enrollment: A low chronic-absence rate is the cleanest school-level signal of strong family connection, classroom culture, and student engagement — all upstream drivers of enrollment stability. For school leaders: an Enrollment Trend Audit traces this dynamic forward →
Source: U.S. Department of Education, Civil Rights Data Collection 2020–2021. Rate = students chronically absent ÷ 2024 total enrollment.
Counselor capacity
Source: U.S. Department of Education, Civil Rights Data Collection 2020-2021. Counselor ratio = the school's most recent total enrollment ÷ counselor FTE. The American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommends a 250:1 maximum; the US national median across schools with on-staff counselors is roughly 430:1.
Enrollment trend & projection
Total enrollment + grade 12, NCES Common Core of Data (2021–2024).
If the recent trend holds…
At its recent rate of -4.3%/year, projecting from 2024's 2,616 students:
≈ 513 fewer students by 2029 — a real revenue/relevance risk worth getting ahead of.
An extrapolation of the recent trajectory, not a forecast of the school's plans; ignores one-off shocks.
Revenue at risk
At $12,784 per student in district revenue, the 513 students projected to be lost by 2029 represent ≈ $6,558,192/year in funding at risk.
District total revenue ÷ enrollment, NCES F-33. Public funding largely follows enrollment, so a shrinking class is a recurring budget hit.
