Summary:
The Shallowater Independent School District (Isd) in Texas is home to two elementary schools: Shallowater Intermediate and Shallowater Elementary. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of a district that is ranked 139 out of 961 districts in Texas, with a 4 out of 5 star rating.
Shallowater Intermediate stands out as a high-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 20% of Texas elementary schools, with a ranking of 487 out of 4,647 schools in the 2022-2023 school year. The school's test scores in STAAR Reading, Mathematics, and Science are significantly higher than the state averages, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.1, compared to 16.1 at Shallowater Elementary.
While both schools have relatively high free and reduced lunch rates, around 40%, the district as a whole is performing well, suggesting that the Shallowater ISD is providing a quality education to its students despite potential equity concerns. The difference in student-teacher ratios between the two schools may indicate differences in staffing or resource allocation that could contribute to the higher academic performance at Shallowater Intermediate.
