Summary

Giddings Intermediate in Giddings, TX, serves 278 students in grades 4 and 5 within the Giddings Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the top third of Texas, and is a steady, middle-of-the-pack performer that has maintained a consistent state ranking around the 48th to 51st percentile over the past decade.

This school stands out for its notable strengths and challenges in specific subjects. Fourth-grade math is a clear bright spot, with 56.93% of students proficient—7.65 percentage points above the state average—and a dramatic improvement from just 34% two years prior. In contrast, fifth-grade math is a persistent weakness, with only 37.31% of students proficient, which is 10.07 points below the state average and suggests a potential learning gap between grades. However, the school excels in fifth-grade science, consistently outperforming the state by significant margins, such as 40.31% proficiency versus 29.57% statewide. Compared to nearby schools, Giddings Intermediate performs on par with Lexington Elementary (49th percentile) and Smithville Elementary (50th percentile), despite serving a higher-needs population with 65% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This suggests the school effectively mitigates challenges associated with poverty, achieving results comparable to schools with more affluent student bodies.

Despite these strengths, the school faces notable internal challenges. Its Gifted and Talented program has seen a dramatic decline, dropping from the 75th percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 32nd percentile in 2025-2026, indicating a need for renewed support for high-achieving students. Additionally, female students consistently outperform male students by about 10 percentile points, suggesting a need for strategies to better engage boys. The most striking contrast is with Round Top-Carmine Elementary, just 16.7 miles away, which ranks in the 85th percentile and achieves 94.44% proficiency in fifth-grade math—a 57-point gap that highlights significant disparities in resources and outcomes between these two rural schools.
