Summary:
In zip code 77975, there is one elementary school, Moulton Elementary, serving grades PK through 6 in the rural community of Moulton, Texas, as part of the Moulton Independent School District (Isd).
Moulton Elementary is a small school with 170 students and a very low student-teacher ratio of 11:1, which typically allows for more individualized attention. The district itself earns a strong 4-star rating, ranking in the 74th percentile statewide. However, the school's own state ranking has declined over the past three years, dropping from the 68th percentile to the 47th percentile. This decline is reflected in test scores, with 3rd and 4th graders in the 2025-2026 school year scoring well below state averages in both reading and math. For example, only about 26% of 3rd graders and 29% of 4th graders were proficient in math, compared to state averages of 44% and 49%.
In contrast, the 5th grade class at Moulton Elementary is a standout, dramatically outperforming the state in the same year, with 88% proficient in reading (vs. 58% statewide) and 65% proficient in math (vs. 47% statewide). This sharp variance between grade levels suggests that success may depend more on the specific group of students than on a consistent school-wide system. Science is a notable weakness, with only 21% of 5th graders proficient in 2024-2025, below the state average. Overall, while the school benefits from small class sizes and a well-regarded district, it faces clear challenges in improving performance for its lower elementary grades.
