Summary

H G Temple Intermediate in Diboll, TX, serves 309 students in grades 3 through 5 within the Diboll Independent School District (Isd), a community where over 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking in the 31st percentile statewide, which reflects a decline from a pandemic-era peak in 2020-2021 when it earned 3 stars and ranked in the 63rd percentile.

A key differentiator is the performance gap with nearby schools. For instance, W H Bonner Elementary in the Hudson Independent School District (Isd), just 9 miles away, ranks in the 51st percentile and significantly outperforms Temple in 4th-grade math (51.66% proficiency vs. 24.49%) and reading (55.45% vs. 37.76%). However, Temple holds its own against schools in the Lufkin Independent School District (Isd), such as Slack Elementary (24th percentile) and Anderson Elementary (39th percentile), often matching or exceeding their proficiency rates in 5th-grade reading and science. Notably, Temple spends $11,451 per student—higher than Bonner ($9,004) and Slack ($10,924)—suggesting resources are available but not yet translating into top-tier results.

A consistent strength is the "5th Grade Bounce," where students meet or exceed state averages in reading and science, preparing them well for middle school. However, a critical weakness is 4th-grade math, with proficiency rates around 24%—roughly half the state average. Additionally, recent data shows a troubling decline in support for specific student groups, including African American students (dropping to the 2nd percentile) and English Language Learners (falling to the 9th percentile), which warrants attention. Overall, Temple offers a solid foundation with notable strengths in upper grades, but families should be aware of challenges in math and equity in student support.
