Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,407 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 18.1% local, 50.1% state, and 31.9% 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 67/100, ranked #235 of 1047 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 4 of 27 schools offering Advanced Placement (24 AP courses district-wide), a 283.8:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 49.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 96.8% Hispanic or Latino, 1.0% White, 0.9% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is L B Johnson El, with a diversity index of 24.6/100.
Its largest campus is John F Kennedy H S, enrolling 998 students (12% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is El Daep, at 1 students, a 998x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Edgewood Isd school enrollment varies 998× across entities
Edgewood Isd school enrollment ranges from 1 students (lowest) to 998 students (highest), a spread of 997 students. That ratio is an extreme outlier spread — among the widest gaps observed anywhere in this dataset. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share is above 87.5%, so economic need is widespread across the measured student population. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Edgewood Isd student-counselor ratio is 284:1 — 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 Edgewood Isd is typically wider than the Edgewood Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
Edgewood Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 49.6% — 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.
