Summary:

The Kerrville Independent School District (Isd) serves approximately 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, in a mid-sized Texas community with a diverse socioeconomic population.

Fred H Tally Elementary stands out as the district's top performer, consistently scoring 10-20 percentage points above district averages in math and reading, while Starkey and Daniels Elementary often lag behind by 5-15 points, highlighting a significant performance gap among elementary campuses. Peterson Middle School excels in advanced math, with Algebra I proficiency rates reaching 89.08% in 2025-2026, far exceeding state averages, yet its general math scores for 6th-8th graders often fall below state benchmarks, suggesting a focus on top students but challenges for the majority. Tivy High School boasts a strong 95.5% graduation rate and solid scores in Biology and U.S. History, but struggles with Algebra I, where only 28.71% of students were proficient in 2025-2026, a sharp drop from district and state averages. Hill Country High School, an alternative campus with high poverty rates (76.74% free/reduced lunch), faces severe challenges, including a 69.4% graduation rate and 0% proficiency in English II Reading for two consecutive years, despite spending the most per student ($16,650) and having the smallest class sizes (10.7:1).

Overall, the district ranks in the 71st percentile statewide, but performance is strongly tied to socioeconomic factors, with higher-poverty schools like Nimitz, Starkey, and Daniels Elementary underperforming compared to wealthier campuses like Tally. The data reveals a need for targeted support in math at Tivy High School and for struggling elementary schools, while Peterson Middle's advanced math program offers a model for accelerating top students. Hill Country High School's high spending and low outcomes underscore the difficulty of closing achievement gaps for at-risk students, suggesting current interventions may not be sufficient.
