Summary:
The three public schools in zip code 79235, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in Floydada, Texas, are all part of the Floydada Collegiate Independent School District (Isd), which educates 671 students and holds a 3-star rating, placing it in the 54th percentile of Texas districts.
A B Duncan Collegiate Elementary is the standout performer, earning a 4-star rating and consistently exceeding state averages in key areas like 4th and 5th grade math and 5th grade science, despite 71% of its students being economically disadvantaged. In contrast, Floydada Collegiate High School is the district's biggest challenge, with a 1-star rating and academic proficiency on End-of-Course exams well below state averages, even though it spends a high $18,886 per student and boasts a 95.7% graduation rate. Floydada Collegiate J H sits in the middle, with a 2-star rating and a notable weakness in 6th and 7th grade math, where only 12.5% of 7th graders were proficient compared to the state's 29.41%.
A critical finding is the performance cliff between elementary and middle school: 5th graders at the elementary school scored 57.89% in reading and 55.26% in math, but 6th graders at the middle school dropped to 44.44% in reading and just 27.78% in math, suggesting a problematic transition. Additionally, the high school's high spending does not translate to strong results, pointing to potential inefficiencies in resource use. While the district's "Collegiate" model shows promise at the elementary level, the high school's poor college-readiness benchmarks indicate that the goal of preparing all students for college is not being met, despite strong student retention.
