Counselor coverage works out to roughly 725 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 33.8% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Orenda Charter School spends $7,940 per pupil district-wide, below the Texas average of $17,150 and below the national average of $19,490.
