What stands out about Glen Rose ISD

  • Enrolment grew 5.9% here, from 1,857 students in FY2019 to 1,967 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.
