Summary:
The three public schools in zip code 76380 (Seymour, TX) serve 594 students across grades PK-12 within the Seymour Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the 90th percentile statewide with a 4-star rating.
Seymour Elementary is the district's standout, earning a 5-star rating for two consecutive years and ranking among the top 8% of Texas elementary schools. It consistently outperforms state averages by wide margins, with 4th-grade math proficiency at 77.78% versus the state's 49.28%. In contrast, Seymour Middle shows a concerning decline, dropping from a 4-star to a 3-star rating over three years. The middle school experiences a dramatic "math cliff," where 4th-grade math scores of 77.78% plummet to just 37.5% in 5th grade, with 6th and 7th-grade math scores falling as low as 20.83%. Seymour High School reverses this trend, maintaining a solid 4-star rating with a 95.7% graduation rate and 0.0% dropout rate. The high school excels in End-of-Course exams, particularly Biology (88.37%) and English I Reading (73.68%), both significantly above state averages.
Resource allocation appears strategic, with the high school spending $15,735 per student—70% more than elementary ($9,265) and middle ($9,441) schools—and maintaining a low 7.6:1 student-teacher ratio. The district's overall 4-star rating is buoyed by the elementary and high schools, but the middle school's decline is a vulnerability that could impact future high school performance. The free/reduced lunch rate decreases with grade level, from 66.67% at elementary to 49.68% at high school, reflecting the community's economic demographics.
