District-Level NCES Analysis

AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS operates 4 public schools serving 2,449 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 other, 1 elementary, 1 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 2,640 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Travis County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,609 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 12.0% local, 63.7% state, and 24.4% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. The district's equity score — 50/100, ranked #516 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 4 schools offering Advanced Placement (8 AP courses district-wide), and 17.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 79.0% Hispanic or Latino, 14.2% African American, 3.6% Asian across the district's schools.

Austin Achieve El accounts for 31.8% of all AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 78.6% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch

free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility — including this one — receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.

AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS chronic absenteeism rate is 17.0% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS is typically wider than the AUSTIN ACHIEVE PUBLIC SCHOOLS-aggregate figure suggests.
