Summary:
The Lexington Independent School District (Isd) in Texas serves 1,052 students across three schools: Lexington Elementary (PK-5), Lexington Middle (6-8), and Lexington High School (9-12). The district holds a 3-star rating and ranks in the 64th percentile statewide.
Lexington Middle stands out as a "math powerhouse," with 100% of its 8th graders scoring proficient or above on the Algebra I End-of-Course exam in recent years—far exceeding state averages. Lexington High School is the district's top performer, earning a 4-star rating with a 97.6% graduation rate and consistently beating state proficiency averages in Biology, English, and U.S. History. In contrast, Lexington Elementary is a concern, with a declining 2-star rating and test scores that fall below state averages in reading and math, such as only 33% proficiency in 5th-grade math versus the state's 47%.
Spending varies significantly: the high school spends $12,051 per student, 28% more than the elementary school's $9,430, while the middle school spends $9,643. Student-teacher ratios are more favorable at the middle (10.3:1) and high school (10.2:1) compared to the elementary (14.4:1). A district-wide strength is science, with all three schools outperforming state averages in 5th-grade, 8th-grade, and high school Biology. The elementary school's struggles suggest foundational gaps, while the middle school's perfect Algebra I scores may reflect a select group of advanced students rather than the broader population.
