District-Level NCES Analysis
Coppell Isd operates 16 public schools serving 13,361 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 8 combined, 3 middle, 3 elementary, 2 high schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Dallas County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,455 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 121 of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 86.5% local, 7.1% state, and 6.3% 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 12/100, ranked #1023 of 1047 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 2 of 16 schools offering Advanced Placement (43 AP courses district-wide), a 493.4:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 9.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 53.3% Asian, 23.9% White, 13.9% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Coppell Middle North, with a diversity index of 70.1/100.
Its largest campus is Coppell H S, enrolling 4,068 students (31% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is New Tech H S at Coppell, at 321 students, a 13x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Coppell H S accounts for 30.4% of all Coppell Isd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Coppell Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Coppell Isd school enrollment varies 13× across entities
Coppell Isd school enrollment ranges from 321 students (lowest) to 4,068 students (highest), a spread of 3,747 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Coppell Isd student-counselor ratio is 493:1 — 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.
Coppell Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 9.6% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 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.
