District-Level NCES Analysis
New Frontiers Public Schools Inc operates 2 public schools serving 171 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 high 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 Bexar County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $23,557 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 121 of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 9.2% local, 43.1% state, and 47.7% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one.
a 150:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 3.3% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 91.1% Hispanic or Latino, 2.6% White, 0.7% African American across the district's schools.
Frank L Madla Early College H S accounts for 87.7% of all New Frontiers Public Schools Inc student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of New Frontiers Public Schools Inc a distant remainder — means New Frontiers Public Schools Inc-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.
New Frontiers Public Schools Inc has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 66.3% 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.
New Frontiers Public Schools Inc student-counselor ratio is 150:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
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 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.
New Frontiers Public Schools Inc chronic absenteeism rate is 3.3% — 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.
