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 largest entity. Grade band: high. 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.
New Frontiers Public Schools Inc reports 66.3% free-lunch eligibility
The reported share sits between 62.5% and 75%, above a simple majority but below the highest descriptive band used here. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
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.
