Summary

Lexington Elementary in Lexington, TX, serves 488 students in grades PK-5 within the Lexington Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the 64th percentile statewide. The school has a moderate level of economic disadvantage, with about 41% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, which is notably lower than nearby schools like Caldwell Elementary (66%) and Giddings Elementary (69%). While the school has shown a concerning overall decline from the 85th percentile (4 stars) in 2020-2021 to the 49th percentile (2 stars) for the 2025-2026 school year, it boasts an exceptional Gifted and Talented program that ranked 1st out of 2,619 schools statewide in 2024-2025.

Lexington Elementary demonstrates clear strengths in specific areas, particularly 4th Grade Mathematics, where proficiency rates have consistently beaten the state average by several points over the last three years. The school also maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.4:1, better than Caldwell Elementary (16.4:1) and Giddings Intermediate (14.9:1), despite spending less per student ($9,430) than all nearby schools. However, the school struggles significantly with its Low Socio-Economic Status students, who consistently rank in the bottom third of schools statewide, and has seen a dramatic 24-percentile-point drop in performance for male students between the 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 school years.

Performance across grade levels is inconsistent, with 5th grade reading (46.77%) and math (33.33%) trailing the state average, while 4th grade math (57.47%) is a bright spot. A compelling comparison is Thorndale Elementary, just 18 miles away, which has a higher poverty rate (48%) and lower spending but achieves significantly better results, ranking in the 76th percentile (4 stars) compared to Lexington's 49th percentile. This suggests Lexington's recent decline is a school-specific issue that can be addressed, rather than an inevitable regional trend.
