Marlin High

Marlin High is a high school located in Marlin, TX, serving grades 9–12 and approximately 243 students. Operated by Marlin ISD, the campus sits about 23.0 miles from Waco News's newsroom and is part of Waco News's ongoing local education coverage.

The school employs roughly 19 full-time-equivalent classroom teachers for a student-to-teacher ratio of about 12.8:1. That ratio is below the state average for TX, generally an indicator of smaller class sizes and more individualized instruction.

Marlin High is a traditional zoned public school within Marlin ISD, meaning enrollment is generally tied to residence within the school's attendance boundary. Boundary maps and feeder patterns are published by the district and updated annually.

State accountability ratings for TEA are released annually and combine student achievement, growth, and closing-the-gaps metrics. Waco News publishes rating updates as soon as they become public each fall, with comparisons to nearby campuses and prior-year trends.
