Summary:
In zip code 76088, there is a single elementary school, Peaster Elementary, which serves grades PK through 3 and is part of the highly-rated Peaster Independent School District (Isd), ranked in the 83rd percentile of Texas districts.
Peaster Elementary stands out for consistently exceeding state averages on 3rd-grade STAAR exams, particularly in Mathematics where it outperformed the state by over 3 percentage points in the most recent data. The school serves 525 students with a favorable student-teacher ratio of 15.6:1 and a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 32.38%. However, a notable concern is a slight downward trend in academic performance, with reading proficiency dropping from 56.91% to 51.72% and math proficiency falling from 51.18% to 47.41% over the past two school years. This decline is also reflected in the school's state ranking, which slipped from the 73rd percentile to the 63rd percentile.
Because the school only covers PK-3, there is no performance data for upper elementary grades within this zip code, meaning students transition to another campus for 4th grade and beyond. Overall, Peaster Elementary is a strong, above-average school in a well-regarded district, though the recent performance dip warrants attention from parents monitoring long-term academic trends.
