Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,012 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 16.5% local, 56.8% state, and 26.7% 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 50/100, ranked #512 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 2 of 24 schools offering Advanced Placement (16 AP courses district-wide), a 362.8:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 35.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 97.0% Hispanic or Latino, 1.2% White, 0.1% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Rosita Valley El, with a diversity index of 30.2/100.
Its largest campus is Eagle Pass H S, enrolling 2,326 students (17% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Daep, at 41 students, a 57x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Eagle Pass H S accounts for 16.7% of all Eagle Pass Isd student enrollment
That concentration means Eagle Pass 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.
Eagle Pass Isd school enrollment varies 57× across entities
Eagle Pass Isd school enrollment ranges from 41 students (lowest) to 2,326 students (highest), a spread of 2,285 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.
Eagle Pass Isd has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 83.5% 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). Areas above 75% eligibility — including this one — receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. 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.
Eagle Pass Isd student-counselor ratio is 363:1 — 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.
Eagle Pass Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 35.9% — 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.
