Summary

Dyer Elementary is a mid-sized school in the small town of Krum, TX, serving 361 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Krum Independent School District (Isd). While the school has a solid overall state ranking at the 58th percentile, a closer look reveals a growing challenge: a significant gap in academic performance between female and male students, with girls ranking in the 74th percentile and boys in the 35th percentile—a 39-point difference that is more pronounced than at nearby schools like Blanche Dodd Elementary.

Dyer also faces a critical challenge in supporting its Hispanic and English Language Learner (ELL) students, who rank in the 11th and 2nd percentiles, respectively—the lowest performance among comparable area schools. This contrasts with schools like Nette Shultz, which performs better with similar student groups. Additionally, 5th-grade science is a notable weakness, with proficiency rates dropping to just 18% in recent years, far below the 58% rate at Blanche Dodd, located less than a mile away. Interestingly, Dyer has a history of exceptional performance with its Gifted and Talented students, ranking in the 97th percentile in 2020-2021, showing the school’s capacity for high achievement.

For parents, this means Dyer Elementary offers a strong foundation but has uneven results across different student groups. The school’s overall ranking masks a widening divide, with female and White students driving recent improvements while male and Hispanic students lag behind. If you have a son or an English Language Learner, it’s worth asking the school about specific support programs. Compared to Blanche Dodd, which has a lower free/reduced lunch rate and more consistent subgroup performance, Dyer may require more proactive engagement to ensure your child thrives, especially in upper elementary science and math.
