Summary:

The three public schools in zip code 79252 serve the small, rural community of Quanah, Texas, as part of the Quanah Independent School District (Isd), which is rated 3 stars and serves grades PK-12 across Reagan Elementary, Travis Middle, and Quanah High School.

Quanah High School stands out as the district's strongest performer, boasting a 96.8% graduation rate and exceeding state averages in Biology, English I, and English II reading. However, it struggles significantly in Algebra I, where only 22.73% of students are proficient compared to 54.03% statewide. This creates a stark contrast with Travis Middle, where 83.33% of 8th graders taking Algebra I are proficient—a major disconnect suggesting a breakdown in curriculum alignment or student support between the two schools. Reagan Elementary shows strength in early math, with 63.64% of 3rd graders proficient, but reading scores lag behind state averages across all grades. The high school spends significantly more per student ($21,347) than the elementary ($14,625) or middle school ($13,613), yet this spending does not translate to uniformly better results, as the elementary school outperforms the high school in math proficiency.

Travis Middle is the district's primary concern, consistently rated 2 stars with math proficiency rates well below state averages—just 23.81% in 8th grade math. The district serves a population with high economic disadvantage, with free/reduced lunch rates above 72% at all schools. For parents, Quanah High School offers strong reading and science programs but requires attention in math and history, while Reagan Elementary provides a solid math foundation. The middle school's academic instability and low math scores make it the area needing the most improvement within the district.
