Summary:
In zip code 76458, there is one elementary school, Jacksboro Elementary, serving grades PK through 5 in the Jacksboro area of Texas.
Jacksboro Elementary is the sole elementary school in the Jacksboro Independent School District (Isd) and enrolls 442 students. The school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.9:1, which is better than the state average, and per-student spending is close to the state average at $10,421. However, a high percentage of students (70.81%) are economically disadvantaged, which is a significant factor. The school's state ranking has been volatile, earning a 2-star rating in the 2023-2024 school year, dropping to 1-star in 2024-2025, and rebounding to 2-star in 2025-2026 (37th percentile). The district overall holds a higher 3-star rating (60th percentile), likely boosted by its middle or high school performance.
Academically, Jacksboro Elementary shows a clear rebound from a difficult 2024-2025 year, but still trails state averages in all subjects. For the 2025-2026 school year, average STAAR proficiency in Reading is 45.64% (8.56 points below the state average of 54.20%), and in Mathematics it is 40.88% (6.12 points below the state average of 47.00%). A critical weakness is 5th Grade Science, which was at just 19.72% proficient in 2024-2025. The school's inconsistent year-over-year performance, particularly in math, is likely influenced by the specific cohort of students in each grade, making it a school that is improving but still facing significant academic challenges.
