District-Level NCES Analysis

FRENSHIP ISD operates 12 public schools serving 11,165 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 8 other, 3 middle, 1 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 10,607 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Lubbock County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $14,009 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 53.2% local, 34.3% state, and 12.5% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $62,973 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 27/100, ranked #917 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 12 schools offering Advanced Placement (17 AP courses district-wide), a 609.1:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 19.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 50.1% Hispanic or Latino, 37.4% White, 5.2% African American across the district's schools.

Frenship H S accounts for 32.3% of all FRENSHIP ISD student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means FRENSHIP 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.

FRENSHIP ISD school enrollment varies 6.5× across entities

FRENSHIP ISD school enrollment ranges from 529 students (lowest) to 3,422 students (highest), a spread of 2,893 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio — most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.

FRENSHIP ISD student-counselor ratio is 609:1 — 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.

FRENSHIP ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 19.2% — 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 FRENSHIP ISD is typically wider than the FRENSHIP ISD-aggregate figure suggests.
