Summary:
Zip code 75845 is home to a single high school, Groveton J H-H S, a combined junior high and high school serving grades 6 through 12 with 411 students in the Groveton Independent School District (Isd), which holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 49th percentile among Texas districts.
Groveton J H-H S presents a mixed academic profile. The school excels in science and history, consistently outperforming state averages in Biology (75.81% proficiency vs. 70.51% state) and U.S. History (77.78% vs. 70.17% state) for the 2025-2026 school year. However, mathematics is a significant weakness, particularly in 8th grade where only 9.38% of students were proficient compared to the state average of 47.24%. Algebra I proficiency also lags at 46.55% versus 54.03% statewide. The school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.9:1 and spends $13,851 per student, yet these resources have not translated into strong math outcomes. The graduation rate is 87.7% with a low dropout rate of 0.8%, and 62.04% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.
Despite the math challenges, the school's overall state ranking has improved from the 54th percentile (2024-2025) to the 61st percentile (2025-2026), earning a 3-star rating. Performance can be inconsistent year-over-year, with subjects like English II Reading jumping from 45.71% to 64.91% proficiency. A notable "8th grade math cliff" exists, where math proficiency drops sharply from 38% in 7th grade to just 9.38% in 8th grade, suggesting a critical transition point. For parents, this school offers strong science and history instruction with small class sizes, but targeted support in mathematics, especially for 8th graders, is essential for student success.
