District-Level NCES Analysis
Community Isd operates 6 public schools serving 4,143 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 combined, 2 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 Collin County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,170 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 121 of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 49.6% local, 41.1% state, and 9.3% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one. The district's equity score is 25/100, ranked #917 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 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (6 AP courses district-wide), a 389.7:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 44.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 41.5% Hispanic or Latino, 35.8% White, 16.9% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Nesmith El, with a diversity index of 69.1/100.
Its largest campus is Community H S, enrolling 1,328 students (36% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Collin Co J J a E P, at 9 students, a 148x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Community H S accounts for 32.1% of all Community Isd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Community Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. 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.
Community Isd school enrollment varies 148× across entities
Community Isd school enrollment ranges from 9 students (lowest) to 1,328 students (highest), a spread of 1,319 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.
Community Isd student-counselor ratio is 390:1 — 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.
Community Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 44.6% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Community Isd has 6 schools, including 2 high, 3 combined, 1 middle. Total enrollment is 4,143 students.
