Summary:
The Kirbyville Consolidated Independent School District in Texas serves approximately 1,439 students across three schools: Kirbyville Elementary (PK-5), Kirbyville J H (6-8), and Kirbyville High School (9-12), with the district earning a 2-star rating (50th percentile) among Texas districts.
Kirbyville J H stands out as the district's top performer, achieving a 3-star rating and jumping to the 61st percentile in 2025-2026. Its 8th-grade Algebra I program is exceptional, with 100% of students scoring proficient or above on the STAAR exam—far exceeding state averages. In contrast, Kirbyville Elementary faces significant challenges, with math proficiency rates as low as 27.2% for 5th graders and 30% for 4th graders, both well below state averages. The elementary school also struggles with science, where only 14.14% of 5th graders were proficient in 2024-2025. Kirbyville High School provides a stable core, with a 94.7% graduation rate and strong performance in Biology and English I, but U.S. History is a critical weakness, with only 50.52% proficient—nearly 20 points below the state average.
Resource allocation appears to impact outcomes: the elementary school has the lowest spending per student ($8,765) and the highest student-teacher ratio (16.2:1), while the high school spends the most ($12,045) and has the smallest classes (11.5:1). Social studies is a district-wide issue, with Kirbyville J H's 8th-grade Social Studies score (15.32%) at half the state average. The district's bright spot is its middle school math pipeline, but the elementary school's foundational struggles in math and science create a challenge for future grade levels.
