District-Level NCES Analysis

BRYSON ISD operates 1 public schools serving 259 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 267 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Jack County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,234 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 60.2% local, 23.3% state, and 16.5% 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. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $89,881 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 57/100, ranked #393 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Bryson School accounts for 100.0% of all BRYSON ISD student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means BRYSON ISD-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.

BRYSON ISD has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 56.0% 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 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.

BRYSON ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 19.9% — 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 BRYSON ISD is typically wider than the BRYSON ISD-aggregate figure suggests.
