District-Level NCES Analysis
Uvalde Cisd operates 9 public schools serving 4,071 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 combined, 2 high, 2 elementary schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Uvalde County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,793 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1207 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 26.1% local, 37.3% state, and 36.6% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one. The district's equity score is 58/100, ranked #370 of 1047 in Texas against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 9 schools offering Advanced Placement (22 AP courses district-wide), a 329.9:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 40.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 92.1% Hispanic or Latino, 7.1% White, 0.2% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Uvalde Dual Language Academy, with a diversity index of 22.5/100.
Its largest campus is Uvalde H S, enrolling 1,148 students (26% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Crossroads Academy, at 59 students, a 19x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Uvalde H S accounts for 25.6% of all Uvalde Cisd student enrollment
That concentration means Uvalde Cisd-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Uvalde Cisd school enrollment varies 19× across entities
Uvalde Cisd school enrollment ranges from 59 students (lowest) to 1,148 students (highest), a spread of 1,089 students. That spread is wider than typical and predicts noticeable gaps in service quality between the highest and lowest areas. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share is at least 75%, indicating a high concentration of measured economic need. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Uvalde Cisd student-counselor ratio is 330:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
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 Variation between sub-units within Uvalde Cisd is typically wider than the Uvalde Cisd-aggregate figure suggests.
Uvalde Cisd chronic absenteeism rate is 40.9% — 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.
