Summary

Austin Elementary in Gregory, TX, is a 1st through 5th grade campus serving 375 students as part of the highly-rated Gregory-Portland Independent School District (Isd). While the school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating, it is the lowest-ranked elementary school in its district, with a statewide percentile ranking of 62nd, compared to peers like East Cliff Elementary (85th percentile) and Andrews Elementary (76th percentile). Despite this, Austin Elementary still significantly outperforms schools in neighboring districts, such as Woodroe Petty Elementary (15th percentile) and H T Faulk Elementary (14th percentile), highlighting the overall strength of its district.

A key strength is the school’s exceptional program for Gifted and Talented students, which ranked in the 94th percentile statewide and earned a 5-star rating. However, the school shows a clear "barbell" effect in its subgroup performance, excelling with high-achieving students while historically struggling with its most vulnerable learners. For example, performance with Special Education students dropped dramatically from the 76th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 15th percentile in 2025-2026. Additionally, the school serves male students significantly better than female students, with males ranking in the 73rd percentile and females in the 47th percentile—a persistent gender gap that warrants attention.

Academically, Austin Elementary shows a notable strength in 3rd-grade mathematics, where 50.6% of students were proficient, above both the district and state averages. However, this foundation does not carry through to 5th grade, where only 41.98% of students were proficient in math—well below the district average of 59.61%. The school also spends more per student ($12,403) and has a lower student-to-teacher ratio (12.5:1) than its district peers, yet these investments have not translated into superior academic outcomes. This suggests that while the school has strong resources, it may need to re-evaluate how they are allocated to address specific weaknesses and ensure consistent progress for all students.
