District-Level NCES Analysis

FRISCO ISD operates 74 public schools serving 66,916 students, placing it among the larger districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 32 elementary, 17 middle, 13 high, 12 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 63,798 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Collin County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,893 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 75.4% local, 16.3% state, and 8.3% 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 $74,495 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 17/100, ranked #1016 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 10 of 74 schools offering Advanced Placement (301 AP courses district-wide), a 594.5:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 17.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 43.3% Asian, 25.7% White, 13.3% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.

FRISCO ISD school enrollment varies 372× across entities

FRISCO ISD school enrollment ranges from 6 students (lowest) to 2,230 students (highest), a spread of 2,224 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.

FRISCO ISD student-counselor ratio is 595:1 — 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.

FRISCO ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 17.2% — 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 FRISCO ISD is typically wider than the FRISCO ISD-aggregate figure suggests.
