Summary

Kilgore Intermediate is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in the Kilgore Independent School District (ISD) in Kilgore, Texas, with 512 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Texas elementary schools by SchoolDigger, with a 2-star rating out of 5 in recent years.

Kilgore Intermediate's academic performance, as measured by STAAR test scores, is generally below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in reading (50% for 4th grade, 52% for 5th grade) and math (32.06% for 4th grade, 36.82% for 5th grade) are lower than the state averages. Additionally, the school's student subgroups, such as African American and Special Education students, tend to perform significantly worse than their peers statewide. Kilgore Intermediate has a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with over 73% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Parkway Elementary and Ned E. Williams Elementary, which are in the Longview ISD and have higher academic achievement and better student subgroup performance, Kilgore Intermediate's performance is generally lower. Despite increased spending per student and consistent 2-star ratings, the school has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance over the past several years, suggesting the need for more comprehensive and effective strategies to address the unique needs of its diverse student population.
