Summary

Poteet Intermediate in Poteet, TX, serves 382 students in grades 3 through 5 within the Poteet Independent School District (Isd), a high-poverty community where over 76% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, Poteet Intermediate has faced significant challenges, with test scores in Reading, Math, and Science consistently falling well below state averages. For instance, only about 28% of students are proficient in Math, compared to over 44% statewide, and 5th-grade Science proficiency was just 6.56% in 2024-2025, far below the state average of 29.57%. This performance is notably lower than nearby schools like Pleasanton Elementary, where 5th-grade Reading proficiency was 47.88% versus Poteet's 31.25%. The school also spends significantly less per student ($8,798) compared to higher-performing neighbors like Heritage Elementary ($12,559) in the Southside Independent School District (Isd), a resource gap that likely contributes to the performance disparity.

Despite these struggles, there is a notable bright spot: Poteet Intermediate's bilingual program appears highly effective. Students taking the STAAR Spanish exams perform significantly better, often exceeding state averages for Spanish-language test-takers—for example, 46.15% proficiency in 3rd-grade Reading Spanish versus 28.3% statewide. This success, however, hasn't translated to English-language instruction, and the school has experienced a decade-long decline, dropping from the 45th percentile in 2017-2018 to the 8th percentile by 2025-2026. While the school has found a successful formula for its English Language Learner population, sustaining this progress remains a challenge.
