Summary:
The 76454 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Gorman Independent School District (ISD). While the schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, there are some standout performers and areas of concern across the district.
Gorman High School stands out with a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 96.8% and a low dropout rate of 0.0% for the 2022-2023 school year. The school also performs significantly better than the state average on the U.S. History End-of-Course (EOC) exam. In contrast, Maxfield Elementary struggles with low proficiency rates in mathematics, with only 15.38% of 3rd graders and 18.75% of 5th graders scoring proficient or better in 2024-2025.
Gorman Middle School stands out with an impressive 81.25% of 6th graders scoring proficient or better on the STAAR reading test in 2024-2025, significantly higher than the state average. However, the school's performance in other subject areas, such as Algebra I EOC, is more in line with the district and state averages. Overall, the data suggests a pattern of academic underperformance across the Gorman ISD, warranting further investigation and targeted interventions to address the needs of the student population and improve educational outcomes.
