District-Level NCES Analysis
Callisburg Isd operates 4 public schools serving 1,166 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 combined, 1 high, 1 middle 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 Cooke County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,108 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 67.0% local, 24.3% state, and 8.7% 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 26/100, ranked #912 of 1044 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 4 schools offering Advanced Placement (5 AP courses district-wide), a 381.7:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 19.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 83.8% White, 12.1% Hispanic or Latino, 0.7% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Callisburg El, with a diversity index of 41.8/100.
Its largest campus is Callisburg El, enrolling 531 students (46% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Daep, at 6 students, a 89x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Callisburg El accounts for 45.5% of all Callisburg Isd student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Callisburg Isd a distant remainder — means Callisburg Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.
Callisburg Isd school enrollment varies 89× across entities
Callisburg Isd school enrollment ranges from 6 students (lowest) to 531 students (highest), a spread of 525 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.
Callisburg Isd student-counselor ratio is 382:1 — 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.
Callisburg Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 19.3% — 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 Callisburg Isd is typically wider than the Callisburg Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
