Summary:
Zip code 77990 is home to a single elementary school, Austwell-Tivoli Elementary, which serves grades PK through 5 as part of the Austwell-Tivoli Independent School District (Isd) in a small, rural Texas community.
Austwell-Tivoli Elementary is a very small school with just 67 students, offering an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 11:1, which allows for significant individualized attention. The school has consistently earned a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three years, ranking in the 68th percentile statewide (1,488th out of 4,627 Texas elementary schools). Per-student spending is high at $17,394, typical for small rural districts, and 34.33% of students are economically disadvantaged.
The school shows a clear strength in upper-grade mathematics, with 6th-grade math proficiency reaching 80% in 2025-2026—more than double the state average of 38.57%. However, there is a critical weakness in science, where 0% of 5th graders were proficient in 2024-2025. Performance also varies significantly by grade level, with 4th-grade scores notably lower than 5th and 6th grades in both reading and math. Given the small class sizes, these fluctuations are highly sensitive to individual student performance, making year-over-year comparisons more volatile than in larger schools.
