Summary

Three Rivers Elementary is a small PK-6 school in Three Rivers, TX, serving 312 students within the Three Rivers Independent School District (Isd), where 75% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has experienced a significant decline in state rankings over the past five years, dropping from the 72nd percentile in 2020-2021 to the 13th percentile in 2025-2026, a trend that affects nearly all student groups and grade levels.

When compared to nearby George West Pri (just 9 miles away in the George West Independent School District (Isd)), the differences are striking. George West Pri outperforms Three Rivers Elementary by over 35 percentage points in both 3rd-grade reading (83.53% vs. 48% proficient) and math (84.71% vs. 42% proficient). Despite spending nearly 49% more per student ($13,716 vs. $9,224) and having slightly smaller class sizes (16.6:1 vs. 17.3:1), Three Rivers Elementary achieves far lower academic results, suggesting that higher spending has not translated into effective instruction or interventions.

One bright spot is 5th-grade science, where Three Rivers Elementary has consistently outperformed the state average in recent years, indicating a potential strength that could be replicated in other subjects. However, the school's overall decline is broad and severe, with the most recent data showing performance in the bottom 15% for nearly every subgroup. The school had previously shown success with economically disadvantaged students, ranking in the 53rd percentile in 2024-2025, but that progress has eroded, with these students now performing in the 18th percentile. The most urgent priorities for Three Rivers Elementary are reversing the decline in reading and math proficiency and providing targeted support for its student population.
