Navarro Independent School District (Isd)

The Navarro Independent School District (Isd) serves approximately 2,702 students across four schools in a predominantly rural area of Texas, including Navarro Elementary, Navarro Intermediate, Navarro J H, and Navarro High School.

Navarro High School stands out as the district's academic anchor, consistently outperforming the state average in every core subject across both tested school years, and it boasts a strong 94.8% graduation rate. In contrast, Navarro J H presents a fascinating paradox: its advanced math program is exceptional, with over 91% of Algebra I students scoring proficient, yet its on-level 7th-grade math proficiency plummeted to just 16.51%, far below the state average. This "7th Grade Math Cliff" suggests a critical curriculum or instructional gap that needs attention, even as the school excels at accelerating its top math students.

Elementary math is a clear district strength, with Navarro Intermediate posting proficiency rates in 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade math that are significantly above state averages. Navarro Elementary also shows strong historical performance, consistently ranking in the top quartile and earning a 4-star rating in two of the last three years. Overall, the district earns a solid 4-star rating, ranking 250th out of 951 Texas districts, with favorable student-teacher ratios and moderate socioeconomic diversity, as indicated by free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 32% at the high school to 47% at the elementary school.
