District-Level NCES Analysis

TEXAS COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACADEMIES operates 43 public schools serving 16,478 students, placing it in the mid-size range in Texas.

Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 16,959 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Denton County County.

The funding mix is 1.1% local, 95.4% state, and 3.6% 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.

TEXAS COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACADEMIES student-counselor ratio is 427:1 — 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.

TEXAS COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACADEMIES chronic absenteeism rate is 26.0% — 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 TEXAS COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACADEMIES is typically wider than the TEXAS COLLEGE PREPARATORY ACADEMIES-aggregate figure suggests.
