Summary

Wylie East Intermediate in Abilene, TX, serves 384 students in 4th and 5th grade and is part of the highly-rated Wylie Independent School District (Isd), which ranks in the 90th percentile statewide. The school has a low rate of economic disadvantage, with only 23.7% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, and a student-teacher ratio of 17.4:1. While the school has consistently performed above the state average in Reading and Math, its overall state ranking has declined over the past three years, dropping from the 81st percentile to the 67th percentile. This trend is a key area of concern for parents to consider.

The most notable differentiator is the performance gap between Wylie East Intermediate and its sister school, Wylie West Intermediate, which serves grades 3-4. In the most recent school year, Wylie West ranked in the 89th percentile (4 stars), while Wylie East ranked in the 67th percentile (3 stars). For example, in 4th Grade Math, Wylie East had 55% of students proficient, compared to 70.94% at Wylie West. This gap suggests that while both schools serve similar demographics, Wylie West is currently delivering higher academic outcomes. However, Wylie East still dramatically outperforms nearby schools from the Abilene Independent School District (Isd), such as Taylor Elementary and Bowie Elementary, which scored far lower in 5th Grade Math.

Despite recent declines, Wylie East Intermediate has notable strengths. The school has consistently excelled in 5th Grade Science, scoring well above the state average. Additionally, the school has demonstrated strong support for its African American students, with this subgroup ranking in the 84th percentile statewide. However, the school faces challenges with a broad-based decline in performance across several student groups, including those from low socio-economic backgrounds and Hispanic students. Parents may also want to note a potential "transition dip" between Wylie East Elementary (K-3) and Wylie East Intermediate, as 3rd Grade Reading scores at the elementary school are higher than 4th Grade Reading scores at the intermediate school, suggesting a possible misalignment in curriculum or instruction.
