Original Research by School Decision on Floydada Isd Daep
Floydada ISD DAEP is an alternative school serving students in grades eight through twelve in Floydada, Texas. It is a small placement within Floydada Collegiate ISD, located in Floyd County.
The school currently enrolls a very small number of students. The enrollment is distributed across grades, with representation in eighth, ninth, and twelfth grade; no students are enrolled in tenth or eleventh grade at this time. The student body is predominantly Hispanic, with a smaller share of Black students. Race and ethnicity data are available; data on free-or-reduced-price lunch eligibility, students with individualized education plans, and English learners were not available.
As an alternative school, DAEP exists to serve students whose needs or circumstances differ from those in traditional comprehensive high schools. Alternative programs typically enroll students who have been placed there through disciplinary action, are at risk of dropping out, are pregnant or parenting, or have other barriers to success in a standard setting. The school's purpose is to provide an educational pathway tailored to these students' circumstances while working toward graduation and skill development.
State assessment data from the school are suppressed due to the very small tested population; in the most recent year with data, fewer than a handful of students took assessments in each subject and grade. The suppression of these numbers reflects the statistical reality that proficiency rates based on such small groups are not reliable for comparison or interpretation. Because no valid proficiency data are available, the school cannot be positioned against other districts in Floyd County on academic measures. No graduation rate or chronic absenteeism data were available.
Housing in the Floydada area is quite affordable relative to national benchmarks. The median home value in the zip code is well below the state average, and estimated monthly mortgage costs are modest. The local economy faces headwinds; housing values have declined modestly over the past year, and the county housing market reflects that contraction. Unemployment in the broader region remains near historical norms.
Information about the school's programs, staffing, course offerings, and daily operations was not available in the data provided. Parents interested in understanding what academic pathway, support services, and daily schedule the DAEP offers would benefit from reaching out directly to the school or district to discuss enrollment, curriculum, and student supports.
