The number of students failing at least one course in Hays CISD and Dripping Springs ISD doubled between the fall 2019 semester and the fall 2020 semester  – the biggest culprit has been COVID-19.

Comparing the Fall 2019 and 2020 semesters, HCISD went from an 11.3% failing rate to 23.4%, and DSISD went from 6.1% to 11.8% failing rate.
