District-Level NCES Analysis

SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD operates 2 public schools serving 310 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 409 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Lamb County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $19,547 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 19.9% local, 63.5% state, and 16.6% 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 $119,645 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 86/100, ranked #14 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

a 409:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 23.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 75.2% Hispanic or Latino, 22.6% White, 1.3% African American across the district's schools.

Springlake-Earth H S accounts for 56.2% of all SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means SPRINGLAKE-EARTH 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.

SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 69.8% 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). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. 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.

SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD student-counselor ratio is 409:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)

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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.

SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 23.7% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism

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 Variation between sub-units within SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD is typically wider than the SPRINGLAKE-EARTH ISD-aggregate figure suggests.
