Bob Hope School, TX - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Bob Hope School

Bob Hope School is a small district in Jefferson County serving prekindergarten through grade twelve, with an enrollment weighted toward early grades. The student body is predominantly Hispanic, with a substantial Black population and small numbers of other groups. Socioeconomic data on free-or-reduced-price lunch eligibility was not available, and the district did not report counts of students in special education or English learner status.

State testing results show uneven performance across subjects and grades. In English language arts, students generally perform better in middle grades than in early elementary. Third-grade ELA proficiency stands below the midpoint, while seventh and eighth grade show stronger results. Grade four shows notably higher ELA proficiency, though only a small group was tested in Spanish. Mathematics results are similarly mixed: third through fifth grade show lower proficiency, while sixth and seventh grade reach above the midpoint. Fifth-grade science proficiency is quite low, while eighth-grade science reaches about the midpoint. Social studies, tested only in eighth grade, shows a significant challenge, with proficiency well below the midpoint.

Across all tested subjects, the district reports that roughly four-fifths of students meet the "approaches" standard, meaning they demonstrate foundational understanding. About half meet the higher "meets" standard, and a fifth achieve the highest "masters" level. These ratios suggest a broad base of students gaining access to core content but with a compressed peak of advanced mastery.

Among Jefferson County's districts, Bob Hope ranks in the top quartile on overall proficiency and maintains one of the lowest chronic absenteeism rates in the county, which is notable for student engagement. Per-pupil spending is in the lower range compared to peer districts in the county.

The district operates five schools across different campuses and grade configurations. No information on program offerings, staffing, discipline policy, or district strategic priorities was available. A parent considering this district may want to explore with administrators the specific factors affecting performance in science and social studies, as well as the supports in place for early elementary literacy and numeracy, where proficiency gaps are widest.
