Summary:
The four public schools in zip code 77418, serving approximately 2,172 students from Pre-K through 12th grade, are part of the Bellville Independent School District (Isd), which holds a 3-star rating and ranks in the 61st percentile of Texas districts.
Bellville High School stands out as the district's top performer, boasting a near-perfect 98.9% graduation rate and strong scores in Biology and English, significantly exceeding state averages. However, its Algebra I proficiency is critically low at just 21.43%, creating a stark contrast in academic tracks. In contrast, Bellville J H excels in advanced math, with 82.98% of 8th graders proficient in Algebra I, yet its general math scores for 6th and 7th graders are alarmingly low—7.61% in 7th grade versus the state's 29.41%. At the elementary level, O'Bryant Pri shows solid 3rd-grade math performance on par with the state average, while O'Bryant Intermediate struggles with 5th-grade science, where only 19.51% of students are proficient.
A key takeaway is the district's "math cliff" in middle school, where general math proficiency drops sharply before a select group excels in 8th-grade Algebra I. This feeder pattern leads to the high school's low overall Algebra I scores, suggesting a need for curriculum review. Additionally, science is a district-wide weakness, with scores below state averages in 5th and 8th grades, though high school Biology is a bright spot. The district maintains favorable student-teacher ratios (12.8:1 to 14.5:1) and consistent per-student spending around $10,400, with economic disadvantage rates ranging from 37.66% at the high school to 49.38% at the primary school.
