District-Level NCES Analysis
Diboll Isd operates 6 public schools serving 1,669 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 high, 2 elementary, 1 middle, 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 Angelina County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,316 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 17.1% local, 63.1% state, and 19.8% 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 68/100, ranked #211 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.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (1 AP courses district-wide), a 333.3:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 21.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 49.9% Hispanic or Latino, 31.3% White, 13.6% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Stubblefield Lrn Ctr, with a diversity index of 69.2/100.
Its largest campus is Diboll H S, enrolling 480 students (28% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Stubblefield Lrn Ctr, at 9 students, a 53x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Diboll H S accounts for 28.0% of all Diboll Isd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Diboll 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.
Diboll Isd school enrollment varies 53× across entities
Diboll Isd school enrollment ranges from 9 students (lowest) to 480 students (highest), a spread of 471 students. That ratio is among the widest observed and reflects extreme enrollment heterogeneity, the district operates both small specialty programs and large comprehensive campuses inside a single budgeting unit. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Diboll Isd has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 68.1% 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.
Diboll Isd student-counselor ratio is 333:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
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 Variation between sub-units within Diboll Isd is typically wider than the Diboll Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
Diboll Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 21.4% — 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 Diboll Isd is typically wider than the Diboll Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
