District-Level NCES Analysis

Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,329 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 1.4% local, 61.6% state, and 36.9% 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 96/100, ranked #5 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 1 schools offering Advanced Placement (1 AP courses district-wide), a 348:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 57.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 57.5% Hispanic or Latino, 35.6% African American, 4.0% White across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Pegasus Charter H S, enrolling 348 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Pegasus Charter H S accounts for 73.1% of all Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences a distant remainder — means Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences-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.
Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 74.2% 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.
Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences student-counselor ratio is 348:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
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 Variation between sub-units within Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences is typically wider than the Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences-aggregate figure suggests.
Pegasus School of Liberal Arts and Sciences chronic absenteeism rate is 57.8% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
