Summary

Dixie Hansel Elementary in Krum, TX, serves 501 students in grades PK-5 within the Krum Independent School District (Isd), a district rated as average compared to others in Texas.

Dixie Hansel is a middle-of-the-pack school with a unique profile. Its overall state ranking (47th percentile) is lower than its same-district peers, Blanche Dodd Elementary and Dyer Elementary (both at the 58th percentile). The most striking differentiator is a significant performance gap between genders: male students rank in the 64th percentile, while female students rank in the 21st percentile—a 43-percentile-point gap not seen at nearby schools. Additionally, the school has seen a sharp decline in serving special education students, dropping from the 54th percentile to the 16th percentile in just one year. On a positive note, 5th-grade math has shown a dramatic year-over-year improvement, jumping from 33.78% proficient to 52.24% proficient, outperforming the state average. However, 3rd-grade math remains a weak point, with only 32.98% of students proficient, well below the state average of 44.33%.

Interestingly, Dixie Hansel’s performance is not solely determined by its socioeconomic makeup. While 46.71% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, a similar rate to the high-performing Nette Shultz (76th percentile), the school’s results are much lower. This suggests there are opportunities for improvement by studying the practices of higher-performing schools with similar demographics. Furthermore, Dixie Hansel has the lowest per-student spending among all nearby schools ($8,959), reinforcing that how money is spent matters more than the total amount.
