Summary

Gibson Elementary is a public elementary school in Corpus Christi, Texas, serving 393 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Corpus Christi Independent School District (CCISD), which is ranked 502 out of 961 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gibson Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools over the past several years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, indicating it is performing significantly below average compared to other schools in the state. The school's proficiency rates in STAAR Reading, Math, and Science are significantly lower than the CCISD and Texas state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 37.1% of 3rd graders at Gibson Elementary were proficient in STAAR Reading, compared to 49.35% for CCISD and 52.02% for Texas. The school's performance is particularly low in STAAR Math, with only 24.19% of 3rd graders, 28.85% of 4th graders, and 18.03% of 5th graders reaching proficiency in 2024-2025.

Nearby schools within the CCISD district, such as Wynn Seale Metropolitan School Of Design, Allen Elementary, and Zavala Elementary, generally outperform Gibson Elementary on academic measures. However, these nearby schools also serve student populations with lower percentages of free/reduced-price lunch recipients, suggesting socioeconomic factors may play a role in the performance differences. Despite the challenges, the school's location within the CCISD district provides opportunities for collaboration, resource sharing, and targeted interventions to address the unique needs of its student population.
