Summary

Elkhart Intermediate in Elkhart, TX, serves 246 students in grades 3 through 5 within the Elkhart Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the top 36% of Texas. While the school has a history of high performance, earning 4-star ratings for years, it has recently seen a notable decline, dropping to a 3-star rating and a 54th percentile statewide rank. This downward trend is a key concern, especially when compared to nearby Slocum Pk - 8, which is just 6.89 miles away and consistently outperforms Elkhart Intermediate in most subjects despite serving a similar percentage of students from low-income families.

The most striking finding is the school's "two schools in one" dynamic. Its Gifted and Talented (GT) program is exceptional, ranking in the 91st percentile statewide and earning a 5-star rating. However, this success is not mirrored across the rest of the student body. Performance for students in the general population, including those from low socio-economic backgrounds (45th percentile) and those in special education (48th percentile), is below the state average. This suggests that the school's resources and instructional strategies may be heavily concentrated on its GT cohort, leaving other students without the same level of support.

There are also bright spots and areas for improvement. The current 5th-grade class is a standout, significantly outperforming the state in both reading (68.67% vs. 58.47%) and math (51.81% vs. 47.38%). In contrast, 4th-grade math proficiency is a low 28%, creating a 23-point gap between the two grades that points to a potential issue with the 4th-grade math curriculum. Notably, the school spends $10,113 per student, which is higher than its district counterpart, Elkhart Elementary, and comparable to the higher-performing Slocum PK-8. This indicates that the recent decline is not due to a lack of funding, but likely stems from how those resources are allocated and the effectiveness of instructional strategies across different grade levels and student groups.
