What stands out about Devers ISD
- Estimated teacher pay here moved +2.3% between FY2019 and FY2023, trailing Texas's statewide +10.1% by 7.8 points, a growth rate faster than 21% of the 1,015 Texas districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
- Enrolment grew 15.9% here, from 176 students in FY2019 to 204 in FY2023, against a national picture where far more districts shrank than grew over the same period. Growth of this kind typically arrives before the funding that follows it, so per-pupil figures often dip while a district absorbs it.
