District-Level NCES Analysis
Manor Isd operates 15 public schools serving 9,255 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 6 combined, 4 elementary, 3 middle, 2 high schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Travis County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,480 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 67.1% local, 17.9% state, and 15.1% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 26/100, ranked #900 of 1044 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.
Academic infrastructure includes 2 of 15 schools offering Advanced Placement (13 AP courses district-wide), a 479.8:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 24.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 65.7% Hispanic or Latino, 19.9% African American, 6.5% White across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Bluebonnet Trail El, with a diversity index of 68.0/100.
Its largest campus is Manor H S, enrolling 2,422 students (25% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Manor Excel Academy, at 146 students, a 17x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Manor H S accounts for 24.7% of all Manor Isd student enrollment
That concentration means Manor Isd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.
Manor Isd school enrollment varies 17× across entities
Manor Isd school enrollment ranges from 146 students (lowest) to 2,422 students (highest), a spread of 2,276 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Manor Isd has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 69.7% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is approaching the 75% concentration-grant threshold; it does not yet unlock the extra funding tier but sits meaningfully above the baseline 50% majority mark. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Manor Isd student-counselor ratio is 480:1 — 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.
Manor Isd chronic absenteeism rate is 24.0% — 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 Manor Isd is typically wider than the Manor Isd-aggregate figure suggests.
