Summary:
Evant Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to a single elementary school, Evant Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's performance has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Texas elementary schools, with significant gaps in academic proficiency compared to state averages, particularly in mathematics and science.
Evant Elementary's STAAR test scores are well below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in reading was 26.67%, compared to the state average of 52.02%. In mathematics, the proficiency rates ranged from only 6.67% (3rd grade) to 41.67% (5th grade), far below the state averages of 44.88% (3rd grade) and 46.24% (5th grade). The school's 5th-grade science proficiency rate of 25% also lagged behind the state average of 29.57%.
The school's challenges may be exacerbated by its high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 66.04% in the 2023-2024 school year. While the student-teacher ratio of 13.3 is slightly lower than the state average, the school's per-student spending of $10,386 for the 2020-2021 school year raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning. Overall, the data suggests that Evant Independent School District faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its elementary school students.
