Summary

La Vernia Intermediate in La Vernia, TX, serves 852 students in grades 3-5 and is a high-performing school within the highly ranked La Vernia Independent School District (Isd), consistently ranking in the top 25% of all Texas elementary schools.

This school stands out for its strong academic performance across all subjects, particularly in science, where 5th-grade proficiency rates are dramatically higher than the state average and far exceed those of nearby schools like Copperfield Elementary and Escondido Elementary. For example, in 5th-grade math, La Vernia Intermediate's proficiency rate (58.11%) is nearly double that of Idea Converse Academy (27.93%). The school also benefits from a lower poverty rate compared to many neighboring schools, which correlates with its higher test scores. However, it is important to note that the school's overall state ranking has seen a slight, gradual decline from the 89th percentile in 2020-2021 to the 77th percentile in 2025-2026, a trend worth monitoring.

A critical area of concern is the school's support for English Language Learner (ELL) students, who ranked in the 1st percentile in 2025-2026—a significant drop from the 56th percentile the year prior. Additionally, the school's effectiveness with students from low socio-economic backgrounds has been declining, falling from the 71st percentile in 2023-2024 to the 43rd percentile in 2025-2026. While La Vernia Intermediate remains a strong choice overall, these trends suggest that families with ELL or economically disadvantaged students should investigate the school's specific support programs. The school also operates with a slightly higher student-teacher ratio (20.6) than its feeder school, La Vernia Pri, and has slightly lower per-student spending, indicating it may be doing more with fewer resources.
