Summary

Groveton Elementary is a small PK-5 school in Groveton, TX, serving 343 students within the Groveton Independent School District (Isd), where over 61% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the school has experienced a sharp decline in state rankings from the 62nd percentile in 2020-2021 to the 14th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year.

The most pressing concern for parents is the school's consistent underperformance in mathematics, with proficiency rates in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade (35.3%, 28.6%, and 22.8%) all significantly below the state average. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like Onalaska Elementary (58th percentile) and Corrigan-Camden Elementary (57th percentile), which have maintained stable, above-average performance. Interestingly, the school spends over $11,000 per student—higher than Onalaska Elementary—indicating that funding is not the primary issue. There is a glimmer of hope in 5th-grade science, which briefly beat the state average in 2023-2024, suggesting potential for improvement in specific subjects.

Groveton Elementary has historically excelled with its Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the 99th percentile in past years, but this strength has not translated to the broader student body. The school's overall decline has been steady since the pandemic, reversing gains made during that period. For context, Apple Springs Elementary, a much smaller school with a higher poverty rate, has outperformed Groveton in recent rankings (43rd percentile vs. 28th percentile in 2024-2025), suggesting that school size and poverty alone do not determine outcomes. To reverse its trajectory, the school will need to focus on improving math instruction and addressing systemic challenges that have led to this multi-year decline.
