Summary

Eagle Lake Intermediate is a small school in Eagle Lake, TX, serving 166 students in grades 3 through 5 within the Rice Consolidated Independent School District, where over 82% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

The most pressing concern for Eagle Lake Intermediate is its sharp academic decline. After reaching a 3-star rating and ranking in the 59th percentile statewide in 2022-2023, the school has dropped to a 1-star rating and the 15th percentile for the 2025-2026 school year. This is a much steeper fall than nearby schools. For example, Garwood Elementary, just 11 miles away in the same district, has been steadily improving and now ranks in the 60th percentile. A critical issue is a severe gender achievement gap: female students rank in the 30th percentile, while male students rank in the 4th percentile, earning a 0-star rating. Science proficiency is also very low, with only 15.69% of 5th graders proficient in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 29.57%. Notably, the school spends $11,865 per student—higher than Sealy Elementary ($9,348) and East Bernard Elementary ($8,975)—suggesting that financial resources alone are not solving the challenges.

Despite these struggles, there are a few bright spots. English Language Learners at Eagle Lake Intermediate ranked in the 57th percentile in 2024-2025, the highest rating for any subgroup that year, indicating effective programs for this population. Additionally, 4th-grade Math proficiency reached 53.85% in 2025-2026, surpassing the state average of 49.28%—a rare success that may point to a particularly effective teacher or intervention. This contrast within the same district highlights that school-level factors, such as leadership and teaching staff, are driving outcomes more than district policies. Parents considering Eagle Lake Intermediate should weigh these pockets of strength against the overall trend of declining performance.
