A school with high student mobility has many students who have moved in or out during the school year, or who are chronically absent. Some schools across Texas have found success with highly mobile student populations, but, in general, as mobility increases, school grades tend to go down. Student Mobility and School Grades Statewide 75% of schools with low student mobility achieved an A or B grade, compared to only 18% of schools with the highest student mobility rates.
