District-Level NCES Analysis
Hudson Isd operates 5 public schools serving 2,768 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 high, 1 combined, 1 middle, 1 elementary 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 $10,852 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 22.9% local, 61.9% state, and 15.3% 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 49/100, ranked #539 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 1 of 5 schools offering Advanced Placement (5 AP courses district-wide), a 476.4:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 19.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 59.2% White, 24.4% Hispanic or Latino, 9.5% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Stubblefield Lrn Ctr, with a diversity index of 61.7/100.
Its largest campus is Hudson H S, enrolling 783 students (28% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Stubblefield Lrn Ctr, at 9 students, a 87x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Hudson H S accounts for 28.2% of all Hudson Isd student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Hudson 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.
Hudson Isd school enrollment varies 87× across entities
Hudson Isd school enrollment ranges from 9 students (lowest) to 783 students (highest), a spread of 774 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.
Hudson Isd student-counselor ratio is 476:1 — 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.
Hudson Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 19.7% — 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 Hudson Isd is typically wider than the Hudson Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
