Bronte Isd, TX - District Data

Original Research by School Decision on Bronte Isd

Bronte ISD serves a small district in Coke County covering about two hundred students across grades preK through twelve, with enrollment drawn roughly equally from elementary and secondary grades. The district operates a single school complex serving the rural area, including the towns of Miles, Blackwell, and Winters.

The district's test performance shows uneven proficiency across grades and subjects. In English language arts, performance varies considerably by grade. Third and fourth graders score below the midpoint, while fifth graders show majority proficiency. Sixth and seventh graders perform notably better, with seventh graders reaching strong performance. Eighth graders stand out with very high English proficiency. Math proficiency is more consistently weak across the elementary and middle grades, dropping sharply in seventh and eighth grade. Science proficiency in fifth and eighth grades sits in the lower range. On state assessment measures, the district reaches a proficiency rate at the middle of the tested range when looking at all subjects combined; the "meets" performance level sits at about half of all tested students, while the "masters" level is reached by roughly one-quarter.

The student body is predominantly white, with a smaller Hispanic enrollment and very minimal Black and multiracial representation. The district serves no identified Asian or Native Hawaiian students, and no Alaska Native or American Indian students. Specific counts for students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, English learners, and students with disabilities were not available in the data.

The local housing market in the region shows modest home values compared to the Texas statewide benchmark, with properties priced below the statewide median. Mortgage affordability appears accessible for households at the area median income level. The unemployment rate in the region sits slightly above the national average, and median household income is somewhat above the national figure.

A significant development affecting the district is the May 2024 approval of two bond propositions by voters: one for school building improvements and one for athletic facilities. For a small, single-campus district, this represents a major, multi-decade capital investment funded through property-tax-backed bonds. Families considering a move to the area should anticipate the property tax implications of the debt service on these bonds alongside the value of the upgraded facilities the investments will bring.

State assessment data for high school grades was not available, so graduation rates and upper-secondary academic performance cannot be characterized from the provided information.
