Summary:
Dayton Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to a single high school, Dayton High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas high schools over the past three years, with a SchoolDigger rating of 2 out of 5 stars. While the school's graduation rate is relatively high at 93%, its academic performance, as measured by STAAR End-of-Course exam proficiency rates, is generally below state and district averages, particularly in Algebra I and English I Reading.
Dayton High School's student population is diverse, with 40.54% White, 49.11% Hispanic, and 7.1% African American students. However, the school has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 66.38% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's adequate resources, as evidenced by a slightly higher per-student spending and a lower student-teacher ratio compared to the state average, the consistent underperformance suggests that the effective utilization of these resources may need to be examined.
While the school's overall performance is below average, its relatively high graduation rate and strong performance in Biology suggest that there may be specific areas of strength that could be leveraged to improve the school's academic outcomes. Addressing equity concerns and focusing on improving proficiency rates in subjects where the school is significantly behind the state and district averages may be key strategies for Dayton Independent School District (Isd) to drive improvement and better support student success.
