COLLEGIATE HIGH SCHOOL

COLLEGIATE H S is a Title I public high school that is part of the CORPUS CHRISTI ISD school district, located in CORPUS CHRISTI, TX with about 399 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 15 teachers, COLLEGIATE H S has a student/teacher ratio of about 26:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Collegiate High School, located on the Del Mar College campus in Corpus Christi, Texas, is an innovative early college high school designed to bridge the gap between secondary and post-secondary education. The program allows students to immerse themselves in a college environment while simultaneously earning their high school diploma and up to 60 hours of college credit—or an associate degree—at little to no cost. By integrating rigorous academic coursework with a supportive collegiate atmosphere, the school aims to provide a head start for students planning to pursue four-year degrees or specialized career paths.

The school is specifically designed for students who are motivated to accelerate their academic journey and thrive in an independent, college-style setting. By operating within the Del Mar College infrastructure, Collegiate High School encourages students to develop essential time-management, self-advocacy, and study skills early on. This unique partnership not only reduces the financial burden of higher education for families but also creates a seamless transition for graduates moving directly into university programs or the modern workforce.
