District-Level NCES Analysis
Leadership Prep School operates 2 public schools serving 1,351 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 combined, 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 Denton County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $8,905 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 121 of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 3.1% local, 94.4% state, and 2.5% 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 25/100, ranked #920 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.

Leadership Prep School Secondary accounts for 64.1% of all Leadership Prep School student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Leadership Prep School a distant remainder — means Leadership Prep School-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.
Leadership Prep School student-counselor ratio is 446:1 — 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.
Leadership Prep School chronic absenteeism rate is 8.4% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Leadership Prep School has 2 schools, including 1 combined, 1 elementary. Total enrollment is 1,351 students.
