District-Level NCES Analysis

SCURRY-ROSSER ISD operates 3 public schools serving 1,066 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 elementary, 1 high, 1 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 1,032 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Kaufman County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,986 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 27.1% local, 60.4% state, and 12.5% 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 $80,378 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 41/100, ranked #692 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (3 AP courses district-wide), a 344:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 23.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 65.1% White, 29.7% Hispanic or Latino, 1.7% African American across the district's schools.

Scurry-Rosser Middle accounts for 36.9% of all SCURRY-ROSSER ISD student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means SCURRY-ROSSER ISD-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
