District-Level NCES Analysis

CHARLOTTE ISD operates 3 public schools serving 433 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 other, 1 high, 1 middle schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 424 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Atascosa County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $26,990 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 56.7% local, 23.1% state, and 20.2% 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 $114,181 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 77/100, ranked #68 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

a 110.9:1 student-counselor ratio that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 16.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 84.4% Hispanic or Latino, 15.0% White, 0.3% African American across the district's schools.

Charlotte El accounts for 47.9% of all CHARLOTTE ISD student enrollment

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

CHARLOTTE ISD school enrollment varies 2.4× across entities

CHARLOTTE ISD school enrollment ranges from 84 students (lowest) to 203 students (highest), a spread of 119 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio — most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.

CHARLOTTE ISD has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 57.4% 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.

CHARLOTTE ISD student-counselor ratio is 111:1 — 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.

CHARLOTTE ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 16.1% — 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 CHARLOTTE ISD is typically wider than the CHARLOTTE ISD-aggregate figure suggests.
