MILES ISD operates 4 public schools serving 512 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 other, 2 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 489 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Runnels County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $14,431 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 20.7% local, 66.1% state, and 13.2% 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 $83,409 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 56/100, ranked #416 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.
a 122.3:1 student-counselor ratio that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 54.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 57.4% Hispanic or Latino, 40.1% White, 1.0% African American across the district's schools.
Miles El accounts for 55.0% of all MILES ISD student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means MILES ISD-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. 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.
MILES ISD school enrollment varies 269× across entities
MILES ISD school enrollment ranges from 1 students (lowest) to 269 students (highest), a spread of 268 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.
MILES ISD student-counselor ratio is 122:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
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 Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
MILES ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 54.8% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
MILES ISD has 4 schools, including 2 other, 2 high. Total enrollment is 512 students.
