District-Level NCES Analysis
Crowley Isd operates 22 public schools serving 16,729 students, placing it in the mid-size range in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 16 combined, 4 middle, 2 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage 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 Tarrant County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,531 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 55.8% local, 33.3% state, and 10.9% 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 33/100, ranked #797 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 2 of 22 schools offering Advanced Placement (56 AP courses district-wide), a 446.4:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 27.1% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 49.1% African American, 34.3% Hispanic or Latino, 8.4% White across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is June W Davis El, with a diversity index of 67.1/100.
Its largest campus is North Crowley H S, enrolling 2,936 students (17% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Crowley Montessori Academy, at 292 students, a 10x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
North Crowley H S accounts for 17.3% of all Crowley Isd student enrollment
That concentration means Crowley 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.
Crowley Isd school enrollment varies 10× across entities
Crowley Isd school enrollment ranges from 292 students (lowest) to 2,936 students (highest), a spread of 2,644 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.
Crowley Isd has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 67.5% 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.
Crowley Isd student-counselor ratio is 446:1 — 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.
Crowley Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 27.1% — 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 Crowley Isd is typically wider than the Crowley Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
