Best Elementary Schools in Texas for Gifted and Talented Students

Check out our new feature available only on SchoolDigger: rankings for different groups of students in Texas!

Every year, the Texas Education Agency shares test results for various student groups in each school. We use these results to find out which schools do best for each group and list them from the best to the worst.

Additionally, we also compare the performance of the subgroup to the performance of the school as a whole. This makes it easy to see if, for example, Gifted and Talented students are overperforming or underperforming their peers in each school.

Year after year, SchoolDigger is always the first to publish Texas test scores and rankings. Other leading school comparison sites use data that is up to FOUR years old! Be in the know with the very latest performance metrics.

Alert! We are expecting the release of this year's test scores by the Texas Education Agency any day now! We will update our rankings as soon as they are released!

Alert! New test scores and rankings are expected from the Texas Education Agency any day now!
