District-Level NCES Analysis

Compass Rose Public Schools operates 7 public schools serving 2,702 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 elementary, 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 Bexar County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,583 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 0.2% local, 74.9% state, and 24.9% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 59/100, ranked #367 of 1044 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 666:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 35.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 66.3% Hispanic or Latino, 14.1% White, 10.0% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Compass Rose Dream, with a diversity index of 69.5/100.

Its largest campus is Compass Rose Ingenuity, enrolling 830 students (22% of the district's total enrollment).

Compass Rose Ingenuity accounts for 22.0% of all Compass Rose Public Schools student enrollment

That concentration means Compass Rose Public Schools-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.

Compass Rose Public Schools has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 66.3% 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). Eligibility here is approaching the 75% concentration-grant threshold; it does not yet unlock the extra funding tier but sits meaningfully above the baseline 50% majority mark. 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.

Compass Rose Public Schools student-counselor ratio is 666:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)

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 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.

Compass Rose Public Schools chronic absenteeism rate is 35.1% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)

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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
