Centerville Independent School District (Isd)

The Centerville Independent School District (Isd) is a small, rural district in Texas serving approximately 676 students across two schools: Centerville Elementary (grades PK-6) and Centerville Junior-Senior High School (grades 7-12).

The standout school is Centerville Junior-Senior High School, which boasts a perfect 100% graduation rate and shows notable academic strengths, particularly in English. In the 2025-2026 school year, it outperformed the state in 8th Grade Reading (65% vs. 58.69%) and English II Reading (76.92% vs. 59.88%). However, the district faces a significant performance gap between its two schools. Centerville Elementary consistently scores below state averages in both Reading and Mathematics across all tested grades. For example, 3rd-grade Math proficiency was just 27.08% compared to the state's 44.33%. The high school also struggles with Mathematics, particularly Algebra I, where only 15.56% of students were proficient versus the state's 54.03%.

Key metrics reveal that the high school spends more per student ($15,137) than the elementary school ($13,145) and has a more favorable student-teacher ratio (9.7:1 vs. 12.6:1). The district is ranked in the 40th percentile statewide, earning a 2-star rating. While the high school's perfect graduation rate is a strong indicator of student persistence, its state ranking has declined from the 58th percentile to the 35th percentile, likely due to poor performance on high-stakes exams like Algebra I and Biology. Mathematics is a critical weakness district-wide, though 8th-grade Math proficiency (52.94%) actually exceeds the state average (47.24%), suggesting a potential curriculum alignment issue with Algebra I. Overall, the district shows pockets of excellence in high school English but requires significant intervention in math instruction.
