District-Level NCES Analysis

TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL operates 10 public schools serving 320 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 9 other, 1 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 291 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Travis County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $22,804 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 1.1% local, 73.9% state, and 25.0% 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. The district's equity score — 96/100, ranked #2 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

a 74.5:1 student-counselor ratio that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 47.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 48.0% Hispanic or Latino, 34.9% White, 15.0% African American across the district's schools.

Trinity Charter Schools - Lockhart Campus accounts for 46.0% of all TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL-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.

TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL school enrollment varies 134× across entities

TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL school enrollment ranges from 1 students (lowest) to 134 students (highest), a spread of 133 students.

TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 92.1% 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 — including this one — 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.

TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL student-counselor ratio is 75:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)

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 Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.

TRINITY CHARTER SCHOOL chronic absenteeism rate is 47.9% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)

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