Best Public Schools in Zip Code 77662

The six public schools in zip code 77662, serving grades PK-12, are part of the Vidor Independent School District (Isd), a district ranked in the 36th percentile statewide with a 2-star rating and serving over 4,100 students, where a majority (57.1%) come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Pine Forest Elementary is the district's academic leader, earning a 3-star rating and ranking in the 59th percentile among Texas elementary schools, with 4th-grade reading and math scores that surpass both district and state averages. In contrast, Vidor Elementary and Oak Forest Elementary are struggling, both ranking in the bottom 20th percentile (1-star). Vidor High School stands out as a consistent performer, maintaining a 3-star rating and a 93.1% graduation rate, while Vidor J H excels in accelerating top math students, with 92.31% of its 8th graders proficient in Algebra I.

A critical district-wide issue is a "middle school math gap," with proficiency rates at Vidor Middle and Vidor J H falling far below state averages in 5th and 7th grade math. Spending per student varies from $9,559 to $11,361, but does not directly correlate with performance, as Vidor High School spends the most and performs well, while Oak Forest Elementary spends more than Pine Forest but ranks lower. Despite these challenges, Vidor High School's strong graduation rate and consistent performance suggest effective interventions that help students succeed after entering high school.
