Summary:
In zip code 75946, there is one elementary school, Garrison Elementary, serving grades Pre-K through 5th in the Garrison, Texas area, which is part of the Garrison Independent School District (Isd).
Garrison Elementary is a school on a remarkable upward trajectory, having improved its state ranking from the 51st percentile to the 80th percentile over the last two years, earning a 4-star rating. With 346 students and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.5:1, the school serves a community where 66% of students are economically disadvantaged. Despite this challenge, the school consistently outperforms state averages in Reading and Math, with the 5th grade class being a particular standout—achieving an 80% proficiency rate in Reading and a 70.91% proficiency rate in Math, far exceeding state averages. The school also shows consistent academic growth as students progress from 3rd to 5th grade, indicating effective instruction that builds on foundational skills.
A key area of concern is 5th Grade Science, where only 22.64% of students were proficient in the 2024-2025 school year, well below the state average. This creates a notable contrast with the same students' high performance in Reading and Math, suggesting a potential issue with the Science curriculum or resources rather than student ability. Overall, Garrison Elementary is a high-performing school that has demonstrated a powerful turnaround, making it a strong choice for families in the area, though parents may want to inquire about the school's plans to address the science proficiency gap.
