The district's equity score — 76/100, ranked #73 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.
a 378:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 18.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 60.4% White, 21.0% African American, 13.4% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.
Timpson School accounts for 100.0% of all TIMPSON ISD student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means TIMPSON 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.
TIMPSON ISD has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 58.7% 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.
TIMPSON ISD student-counselor ratio is 378:1 — 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.
TIMPSON ISD chronic absenteeism rate is 18.5% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
