Summary

Rains Intermediate in Emory, TX, serves 360 students in grades 3 through 5 within the Rains Independent School District (Isd), a rural district that ranks in the bottom quarter of Texas. The school has a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 15:1, but faces significant academic challenges, with its overall state ranking dropping to the 11th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year—a steep decline from a peak of the 61st percentile a decade ago.

The most pressing concern is mathematics, where proficiency rates are alarmingly low across all grades. For example, only 19% of 3rd graders, 26% of 4th graders, and 25% of 5th graders met state standards in math, compared to state averages of roughly 44-49%. This is a performance gap of 20-25 percentage points, and it makes Rains Intermediate the lowest-performing school among its peers. Nearby schools like Grand Saline Intermediate (73rd percentile) and Edgewood Intermediate (53rd percentile) show much stronger results. Reading is a relative strength, with 4th-grade proficiency at 45%, though still below the state average. The school also struggles to support students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with its ranking for this group falling to the 6th percentile.

Despite these challenges, there are glimmers of hope. In the 2023-2024 school year, Rains Intermediate ranked in the 69th percentile for Special Education students and the 62nd percentile for Multi-racial students, showing that targeted support can work. However, these gains were not sustained the following year. The school’s per-student spending ($9,790) is lower than higher-performing neighbors like Grand Saline Intermediate ($10,938) and Hallie Randall Elementary ($11,782), and its student-teacher ratio is higher than several nearby schools, which may limit individualized attention. To reverse its downward trend, the school will need to focus on improving math instruction and replicating past successes with specific student groups.
