District-Level NCES Analysis
Brookeland Isd operates 2 public schools serving 341 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Sabine County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,883 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending.

The funding mix is 52.4% local, 14.4% state, and 33.2% 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 73/100, ranked #143 of 1047 in Texas against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 190.5:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 24.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 91.8% White, 3.4% Hispanic or Latino, 2.1% African American across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Brookeland El, enrolling 198 students (52% of the district's total enrollment).
Brookeland El accounts for 52.0% of all Brookeland Isd student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Brookeland Isd a distant remainder — means Brookeland Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
The reported share clears the 50% majority mark. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Brookeland Isd student-counselor ratio is 191:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
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 Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Brookeland Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 24.5% — 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 Brookeland Isd is typically wider than the Brookeland Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
