Summary

Groves Intermediate in Groves, TX, is a public school serving 609 students in grades 3-5 within the Port Neches-Groves Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the top 30% of Texas, though the school itself has recently dropped to the 49th percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its exceptional support of Gifted and Talented students, who ranked in the 92nd percentile in 2024-2025, and its strong 5th-grade science scores, which have consistently outpaced the state average. However, math proficiency is a persistent weakness across all grades, and the school has seen a sharp decline in performance for low-income students, dropping from the 69th to the 43rd percentile. A particularly interesting comparison is with the nearby Bob Hope School - Elementary Campus, a charter school with a much higher poverty rate that outperformed Groves Intermediate in every subject in the most recent year, showing that high achievement is possible regardless of economic factors.

While Groves Intermediate is a stronger option than many schools in the neighboring Port Arthur Independent School District (Isd), such as Dequeen Elementary and Travis Elementary, which rank in the bottom 5% of Texas, it faces clear challenges. The school's once-strong 5th-grade reading advantage has nearly vanished, and its White student subgroup has seen a steady decline in performance. For parents, this means Groves Intermediate offers excellent opportunities for high-achieving students but needs to address significant gaps in math and support for its growing low-income population.
