District-Level NCES Analysis
Comquest Academy operates 1 public schools serving 54 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 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 Harris County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,250 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 9.9% local, 61.7% state, and 28.5% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles.
a 136:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 73.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 67.6% Hispanic or Latino, 17.6% White, 5.9% African American across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Comquest Academy, enrolling 34 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Comquest Academy accounts for 63.0% of all Comquest Academy student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Comquest Academy a distant remainder — means Comquest Academy-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.
Comquest Academy student-counselor ratio is 136:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Comquest Academy chronic absenteeism rate is 73.5% — 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.
Comquest Academy has 1 school, including 1 combined. Total enrollment is 54 students.
