District-Level NCES Analysis
Ira Isd operates 1 public schools serving 267 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,682 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 42.0% local, 50.8% state, and 7.2% 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 40/100, ranked #703 of 1047 in Texas against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 284:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 10.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 72.5% White, 26.4% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.

That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Ira Isd a distant remainder — means Ira Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Ira 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 Ira Isd is typically wider than the Ira Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
Ira Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 10.2% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
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 Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
