Brady Isd, TX - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Brady Isd

Brady ISD is a small district serving McCulloch County from prekindergarten through grade twelve across three schools: an elementary building, a middle school, and a high school. The enrollment is small for a K-12 district, distributed unevenly across grade levels with larger populations in the primary and upper elementary years.

The student body is majority white, with a substantial Hispanic population making up roughly two-fifths of enrollment. The district includes a small number of Asian and Black students. Free-or-reduced-price-lunch data and counts of students with disabilities or English learners are not available in the current data.

State assessment performance across STAAR testing shows an uneven profile. In reading and language arts, proficiency is generally in the middle range across grades four through eight, with grade five performing somewhat above other grades. Math proficiency dips markedly in the middle grades, particularly around grade seven where performance is notably weak, before recovering substantially by grade eight. Science proficiency is low at the grade five level tested. Among all tested subjects and grades, the district's overall proficiency index falls above the midpoint when compared to the other district in McCulloch County, though absolute proficiency rates remain modest across the board.

The data does not include high school state assessment results, so completion and college-readiness pathways are not visible in the available information. Graduation rate was not reported. High school curriculum offerings and dual-credit or career pathway programs are not described in the materials provided.

Chronic absenteeism sits above the county median, suggesting attendance is a concern worth exploring with the school. Per-pupil spending is in the lower range among county districts. Housing values in Brady are moderate, and affordability relative to local income is reasonable, putting this in a working-and-middle-class market. A parent may want to look into the middle-school math pipeline directly with the district, given the significant dip in that grade band, and clarify what high school course sequences and post-secondary pathways the district offers.
