Peaster Intermediate

Public Grades 4-6
Summary

Peaster Intermediate in Weatherford, TX, serves 450 students in grades 4 through 6 and is part of the highly-rated Peaster Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 83rd percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its exceptional math performance in the lower grades, with over 64% of 4th and 5th graders proficient in math—well above the state average of about 48%. However, there is a sharp and concerning drop in 6th grade math, where only 37% of students are proficient, falling below the state average. This "6th grade math cliff" is a critical area for the school to investigate, as it suggests a potential challenge in the transition to more advanced concepts. Reading scores are consistently strong across all grades, with proficiency rates between 57% and 66%, all exceeding state averages. The school also benefits from a low rate of economic disadvantage (28% free/reduced lunch), which is significantly lower than nearby schools like Santo Forte J H (57%) and Springtown Intermediate (52%).

While Peaster Intermediate outperforms the state, it is not in the same league as its high-performing neighbors, McAnally Middle (Aledo ISD) and Brock J H (Brock ISD), which achieve reading proficiency rates near 80% and 71%, respectively. Science is a relative weakness, though still above the state average. The pattern of strong math for advanced students continues at the feeder school, Peaster J H, where 97% of Algebra I students are proficient, but general 7th and 8th grade math scores are much lower, suggesting the math cliff may persist for students not on an advanced track.
