District-Level NCES Analysis
Azle Isd operates 13 public schools serving 7,089 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 6 elementary, 3 high, 2 middle, 2 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Tarrant County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,098 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 53.1% local, 34.0% state, and 12.8% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 20/100, ranked #974 of 1047 in Texas against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 13 schools offering Advanced Placement (14 AP courses district-wide), a 467:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 22.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 62.0% White, 31.8% Hispanic or Latino, 1.5% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Cross Timbers El, with a diversity index of 53.5/100.
Its largest campus is Azle H S, enrolling 2,192 students (31% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Tarrant Co J J a E P, at 1 students, a 2192x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Azle H S accounts for 30.9% of all Azle Isd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Azle Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Azle Isd school enrollment varies 2192× across entities
Azle Isd school enrollment ranges from 1 students (lowest) to 2,192 students (highest), a spread of 2,191 students. That ratio is an extreme outlier spread — among the widest gaps observed anywhere in this dataset. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Azle Isd student-counselor ratio is 467:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Azle Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 22.4% — 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 Azle Isd is typically wider than the Azle Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
